Takayoshi came from a family that had at one point been what amounted to pirates of the Inland Sea. The [[Murakami clan|Murakami]], which consisted of three branches, came under control of the [[Mori clan|Môri]] around [[1550]] and were instrumental in the [[1555]] victory at [[Battle of Miyajima|Miyajima]]. Takayoshi became the commander of the Môri's navy and defeated [[Oda clan|Oda]] naval forces at the [[First Battle of Kizawaguchi]] ([[1576]]). In the [[Second Battle of Kizawaguchi]], however, Takayoshi's fleet was overcome by heavy warships built specifically to cut the naval supply lines to the [[Ishiyama Honganji]]. Takayoshi was technically subordinate to [[Kobayakawa Takakage]].
