Miyoshi Nagayoshi was the supreme ruler of Kyoto before Oda Nobunaga moved to Kyoto. In 1558, Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Hosokawa Harumoto attacked Kyoto, but Nagayoshi suppressed them. In the following year, Nagayoshi aggressively launched an offensive against Harima and conquered Kawachi Province, and his largest area of influence was in the Kinai and the eastern half of the Seto Inland Sea coastline. The war banner is unknown without any documents, but the family emblem is "three-story water chestnut with a nail puller". The three-story water chestnut is the emblem of the Ogasawara family, the main branch of the Miyoshi family, and the nail puller emblem was common in the Awa region, suggesting that the family combined the emblem of its origin and that of its birthplace.
