Naomasa was appointed as one of the four administrators of Kyoto (along with along with Matsui Yukon, Murai Sadakatsu, and Takei Sekian) by Oda Nobunaga after 1568. He was named as one of Nobunaga's Go-umamawari-shû (bodyguards) and placed in command of matchlockmen at Nagashino (1575). He was killed leading 10,000 troops against the Ishiyama Honganji the following year. His original surname was Ban - and he received the name Harada from Nobunaga in 1575.
