Tokuo Yokota
Tokuo Yokota (1936-) is credited with "Margaret-chan" (1963-1970-something, Margaret magazine), and as co-writing on "Hougen" with Harumi Mitsui. The Japanese wiki lists over 20 manga titles for him, including "Margaret-chan", "Tamaoki-kun", "Hajime Hajime no Sono Hajime" (Before the Beginning) and a series of books on various famous historical figures.
His 8-page Tokiwa Monogatari chapter starts out with him, Akatsuka and Ishinomori getting together in Akatsuka's room where his mother is making dinner for them. Fujio hates carrots, so he complains and "Toku" eats both Fujio's main dish and everything else as well. They then go outside for an after-dinner sumo match and Toku wins because "he ate his carrots". Then it comes time to work and all Toku wants to do is watch sumo and baseball on Ishinomori's TV. Fujio and Ishinomori go out to buy cigarettes and Toku talks them into letting him play pachinko, since the prizes for winning includes packs of tobacco. He loses and they have to go to the store anyway. Finally he decides to work, but he needs to borrow paper, a pencil and a pen from Fujio. When he sits down to draw, he falls asleep.
