With the current grammar, CU, KU, or NA.

Yes, that's becasue PU (or any other tag) will be taken as a tag [ku]
term of the broda bridi, and then "nu broda pu [ku] [vau] [kei]" will
form a tanru with "brode". This is something that has been proposed to
be changed, so that selbri tcita have priority over sumti tcita. Then
any tag could be used there and be understood as a selbri tcita, as
usually intended.

You have to look into the formal grammars to figure it out.
