Chapter 19: The Foundation Appears to Contain Little Peanut

Just when everyone thought Kagari's method was working.

Suddenly.

Everyone on the screen witnessed a scene that filled them with horror.

The statue Little Peanut, which had been motionless under the gaze of the Shadow Clones,

was now speeding rapidly toward Kagari.

Yet Kagari, who was ahead, had not noticed this problem.

"Hiss~ What the hell is this thing? Didn't they say it's fine as long as you don't break eye contact?"

"Could it be that since Shadow Clones aren't real people, their gaze doesn't count?"

"If that's the case, there's probably no way to stop this thing in the entire ninja world! You can't have someone staring at it every single moment!"

"It's over; the last guy from the Hidden Rain Village is done for too."

Inside the Hidden Leaf Village.

Everyone, who had just breathed a sigh of relief seeing Kagari escape danger,

now widened their eyes in shock upon seeing the statue Little Peanut break free from the constraints of the Shadow Clones and chase after Kagari.

Everyone's eyes bulged wide.

The ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village took an involuntary step forward in disbelief.

Their eyes were fixed tightly on the information coming from the screen.

Could it be that everyone from their village was truly going to die?

Meanwhile, within the Forest of Death.

As Kagari fled forward, he suddenly felt a chill behind him, a cold air shooting straight from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head.

Just as he prepared to turn around and look behind him,

his head spun three hundred and sixty degrees on its own, allowing him to see the statue Little Peanut behind him.

That single glance, however, became the last sight of his life.

He then fell straight to the ground without the slightest struggle.

At that moment, several kunai suddenly flew toward the back of the statue Little Peanut.

A quick glance revealed that Anko Mitarashi had arrived at the scene accompanied by several jonin.

The moment they received the order,

Anko, serving as the examiner, had rushed with several jonin toward the direction where Kagari and the others were located.

Despite hurrying as much as possible, Anko and the others still arrived one step too late.

The last genin of the Hidden Rain Village was slain by the statue Little Peanut right before their eyes.

Anko and the others immediately took action, swiftly launching their kunai.

However.

When facing the kunai thrown by Anko and the others, Little Peanut reacted just like the Plague Doctor before.
