Biography

By 1582, Tsuchi-Gumo and his group of bounty hunters worked with Shinbakufu member Wada Koretake.[1] After Koretake died at the hands of Kyonyo and kunoichi Fujibayashi Naoe,[2] Tsuchi-Gumo 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.[1]

Tsuchi-Gumo's efforts were noted by Kyonyo's father Kennyo, who met with the 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 was at Akagi Fort, Kyonyo, along with Naoe and Yasuke, planned to rescue his father and kill Tsuchi-Gumo.[1]

Together, Naoe and Yasuke infiltrated the fort and sought out Tsuchi-Gumo. Upon finding him at the fort's private training grounds, the duo confronted and assassinated Tsuchi-Gumo. They acquired the о̄dachi Flowing Peace, from Tsuchi-Gumo'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.[1]
