However, there is a minimum size requirement to be a Sumo fighter, and the young Hinomaru Ushio, as talented and hardworking, does not meet this requirement. This small boy has great dreams in achieving the highest class of Sumo, Hinoshita Kaisan. The only way to become professional is if he becomes the High School Yokozuna, a title given to the strongest fighter in the high school tournaments.

If he cannot show his skills in high school tournaments, he may lose his chance to become professional permanently, and the probabilities are against him.
