"They were reinforcements I invited... because we discovered a problem with the Fourth."
Mei Terumi carried Karatachi Yagura's ** down and laid it out before everyone.
"A problem? What do you mean?"
A middle-aged ninja spoke up.
He was Ao, the Byakugan wielder who had served as Mei Terumi's bodyguard at the Five Kage Summit in the original story. But during the Third Shinobi World War, the Hyuga Clan had followed Xuan Zhe, so he had never had a chance to obtain a Byakugan, let alone earn any nickname.

Just then, a voice came to her rescue.
Xuan Zhe approached slowly with a group of Konoha ninja, stopping just short of asking, "Who's in favor,
