Not my image. I just stole it for reference! (And noticed the same thing you did)

The body diode still needs to conduct, the mosfet - as a whole - still has current flowing through it.

And electrons flow the other way out of the battery, so the whole thing is inaccurate!

You still have two sets with current flowing through them. Just not necessarily through the gate/battery.
