Hyôgonosuke was a retainer of [[Amako Yoshihisa]] and distinguished himself at the [[Siege of Gassan-Toda]] Castle. When the castle was surrendered to the [[Mori clan|Môri]], Hyôgonosuke went to Kyoto and at first took up with [[Matsunaga Hisahide]]. When Hyôgonosuke learned that [[Yamanaka Shikanosuke]] was raising an army to restore the [[Amako clan|Amako]], he hastened to join him after obtaining Hisahide's permisson. Before he left, Hisahide gave him a suit of armor and sword and saw him on his way. In battle with the Môri in [[Izumo Province]], he fought bravely and killed [[Awaya Matazaemon]] and [[Tado Saemon]]. Unfortunatly, he was stabbed by an assasin sent by a rival within his own party. He is considered one of the '[[Ten Heroes of the Amako|Ten Heroes]]' of the Amako family.
