By 1582, Tsuchi-Gomo and his group of bounty hunters worked with [[Shinbakufu]] member [[Wada Koretake]].<ref name="Hunters of Kyonyo">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[The Hunters of Kyonyo]]</ref> After Koretake died at the hands of [[Kyonyo]] and ''[[ninja|kunoichi]]'' [[Fujibayashi Naoe]],<ref name="Heads Will Roll">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[Heads Will Roll (Shadows)|Heads Will Roll]]</ref> Tsuchi-Gomo and his group traveled to Kii to continue their incursions. However, when Kyonyo came with the remnants of the ''[[Ikkō-ikki]]'' to Kii, Tsuchi-Gomo planned to hunt and kill Kyonyo for revenge for Koretake.<ref name="Hunters of Kyonyo"/>

Tsuchi-Gomo's efforts were noted by Kyonyo's father [[Kennyo]], who met with the [[Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins|Kakushiba ''ikki'']] members Naoe and [[Yasuke]] to safeguard his son. However, upon hearing of his group's failure, he abducted Kennyo to draw Kyonyo out of hiding. Learning that Tsuchi-Gomo's location to be at [[Akagi Fort]], Kyonyo, along with Naoe and Yasuke, planned to rescue his father and kill Tsuchi-Gomo.<ref name="Hunters of Kyonyo"/> 

Together, Naoe and Yasuke infiltrated the fort and sought out Tsuchi-Gomo. Upon finding him at the fort's private training grounds, the duo confronted and assassinated Tsuchi-Gomo. They acquired the ''[[Ōdachi|long katana]]'', [[Flowing Peace]], from Tsuchi-Gomo's personal effects and then headed back to meet with Kyonyo and Kennyo, who reunited with each other and thanked the duo for their aid.<ref name="Hunters of Kyonyo"/>
