<p>The story takes a seven year timeskip at the end of the Tenrou Island arc. Members who went to the Tenrou Island to participate in the S-rank exam go missing. With the 8 exam participants and their respective partners, the 3 examiners, Master Makarov, and Laxus, that would be <strong>21</strong> members. Is this calculation correct?</p>
