* ''Titles: Iwami no kami''
* ''Distinction: [[Kitabatake clan|Kitabatake]] retainer''
Iwami no kami (his given name is unclear) was a senior retainer of [[Kitabatake Tomonori]] of [[Ise province]]. Known for his intelligence, he had made sure to stock enough rice prior to [[Oda Nobunaga|Oda Nobunaga's]] invasion in [[1569]] to give the Kitabatake a fighting chance. After the Kitabatake surrendered, Iwami no kami is said to have remained close to Tomonori, who became a monk, and acted as an envoy for him and between the [[Oda clan (Owari)|Oda]] and [[Takeda clan (Kai)|Takeda]].
