Yasumori was a careful politician and maintained good relations with both the Hojo regency and the Minamoto house. His influence within the warrior government in [[Kamakura]] was significant. Unsurprisingly, Yasumori gained a number of enemies, the most powerful of whom was [[Taira Yoritsuna]], the Hojo family's house steward. On the 11th month of 1285, Yoritsuna attacked the Adachi compound. The fighting lasted for some five hours but in the end Yasumori was forced to commit suicide. He was joined in this by all of his family and many of his supporters. Among them were men from the Banno, Osone, Ogasawara, Ueda, Kobayakawa, Mishina, Ashina, Futokorojima, Tsunashima, Ikegami, Namikata, and Nikaido families.
