Akebono visited Wakamatsu-beya and practiced with Kaio, Asanowaka and
Asanosho for about 20 matches. He is willing to participate Aki-basho as
an active rikishi. Azumazeki Oyakata (former Sekiwake Takamiyama) seems
to let Akebono decide whether Yokozuna actually compete this basho or not.
So, it seems like we'll have two yokozuna in Aki-basho.

At this stage, Akebono seemed concentrate on yotsu-zumo style practice
than more risky tsuki-oshi style sumo.
