He kept a stone for each body he ate; the stones were placed alongside his tomb in [[Rakiraki District, Fiji|Rakiraki]], in northern [[Viti Levu]]. According to Udre Udre’s son, the chiefs of Rakiraki would go to the battlefield along with Udre Udre and they would each give him every body part of their victims, especially the head, preserving what he couldn’t eat in one sitting for consumption later.
It is believed that had he consumed his 1000th body, he would have become immortal.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://wwwfijiancustomculture.blogspot.com/2009/10/fijis-cannibal-history.html|title=Fiji’s Cannibal History|last=Lealea|first=Sai|date=October 9, 2009|work=Fijian Custom & Culture|publisher=[[Blogger (service)|Blogger]]|accessdate=1 November 2010}}</ref>
