What the Hell Are Those Things?!

The Nen Space the muscular man had occupied...

Had now been flattened by the Thought-Objects.

And the one responsible was the Moyu Clone.

The dozens of Shadow Clones, all equally strong, had wiped out every outsider in that Nen Space with overwhelming speed.

After the last "outsider" fell and dissolved into gray fragments, the Thought-Objects, left with no targets, could only pass through the spatial rifts into other Nen Spaces.

Until every "outsider" was dead, not one Thought-Object would stop hunting.

And so...

The army of Shadow Clones conjured by the Moyu Clone crossed one spatial rift after another, entering each Nen Space to hunt outsiders.

Their actions would clearly hasten the outsiders' demise.

Meanwhile...

In the Nen Space where Kanzai and Cheadle were...

To make certain the outsiders were dealt with, the Moyu Clone born from Cheadle conjured over a hundred Shadow Clones at once.

Kanzai had burned through much of his stamina and Latent Aura in the earlier contest. Now, surrounded by more than a hundred of Moyu's Shadow Clones...

He was in desperate straits within a few exchanges.

Given the nature of Kanzai's Nen Ability, no number of Moyu's Shadow Clones could inflict a fatal wound on him.

The problem was—

No matter how fiercely she and Kanzai resisted, they could no longer turn the tide against such an absurd army of Shadow Clones.

They would either be beaten to death by the swarm or worn down until they died.

The outcome was the
