Ao has always faced discrimination as a foreigner, but his newly revealed blue hair and involvement in the recent crisis spur the islanders to take action against him.
Having thrown in his lot with Generation Bleu, Ao returns with Team Pied Piper to their headquarters in Switzerland. There, he finds himself out of his element and struggling to figure out how he fits in to their plans.
As a result of erasing the Okinawa Scub Coral, Ao is disconnected from reality. While he can freely travel anywhere and any time through the newly created timeline, he is incapable of physically interacting with the world outside of the Nirvash. Instead, he meets Naru, Ellen, Maggie, and Fleur in the past, helping them and giving them warnings about future events. His actions cause the formation of the new timeline's Génération Bleu, which seeks to rescue Ao and return him to reality.
