"The Extermination Order!" (抹殺指令!, Massatsu Shirei!) is the second chapter of Baoh: The Visitor.

Summary

After Sumire and "Baoh"'s escape, Dr. Kasuminome immediately calls for an assassin to kill Baoh before his weapon grows too powerful. Later, the boy and Sumire try to bond with each other, but a knife wielding assassin named No.22 stabs the former, forcing the duo to steal a motorbike and flee. The assassin reports his failure, and is ordered to gather more of his comrades to finish off Baoh before his power fully awakens. It is revealed that the boy, named Ikuro Hashizawa (橋沢 育朗, Hashizawa Ikurō), is amnesiac and doesn't remember how he obtained his uncanny strength and regeneration. No.22 soon attempts a second murder, slicing Ikuro's throat, but it only awakens Baoh, who dissolves N.22 before turning back into a human.
