Morishige was a son of [[Akashi Kagechika]] and at first a retainer of the [[Ukita clan|Ukita]]. He commanded [[Ukita Hideie|Ukita Hideie's]] vanguard at the [[Battle of Sekigahara]] ([[1600]]) and clashed with troops under [[Fukushima Masanori]] and others. Following the defeat at Sekigahara and the subsequent exile of Hideie, Morishige became a ronin and dropped out of sight. In [[1614]] he reappeared, joining the defenders of [[Toyotomi Hideyori|Toyotomi Hideyori's]] [[Osaka castle]]. It is not known if he survived the siege or if he committed suicide at the fall of Osaka castle. He was a Christian and in this capacity was known as 'Jovanni Justo' - for this he figured largely in contemporary European descriptions of the Osaka sieges.
