'''Aoki Ujimasa''' (died 1582) was the guard commander of [[Katano Castle]] in [[Izumi Settsu]], serving under the [[daimyo]] [[Akechi Mitsuhide]] during the late 16th century.

==Biography==
On 21 June 1582, sensing intruders inside the ''tenshu'' of the castle, Ujimasa rallied his troops to surround the building. Before his soldiers begin to storm the ''tenshu'', he and his men were alerted by the arrival of [[Yasuke]], the retainer of the late [[Oda Nobunaga]]. Ujimasa instructed his soldiers to fire their ''[[Arquebus|teppo]]'' against the samurai, but their weapons malfunctioned due to the heavy rain. Ujimasa's men were cut down one by one by Yasuke who then reached the ''tenshu'' outskirts where Ujimasa was at. Despite putting up fierce resistance, Ujimasa and his remaining guards fell to Yasuke's blade.<ref name="Lightning and Thunder">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[Lightning and Thunder]]</ref>
