Princess:"The French swimmers, they have this je ne sais quoi that makes them so good."

With a lot of gas left in his tank, Asa needs to refocus on sumo instead of business ventures. If he doesn't Hakuho will simply leave him in the dohyo dust. And despite the Princess' sumo fantasies, there currently isn't even one more person close to these rikishi in skill…
