The narrator tells us that the story of the Great Tange and his pledge to eat only what he wants is a private one. The great tange, after the war, made a fortune by making people eat what they want. He also wanted to make eating a sport. Five years ago, he had the chance to talk with the president of his company, Toyama, about the idea of making it an official sport. The narrator says that the world is full of wasted food now, and everyone is eating less and less. He wants to promote professional competitive eating, which sounds good to him. He plans to create a competition in the west with two leagues, one east and one west. He hopes that Toyama's death will inspire him to make this sport a reality.
