A warrior carrying a shield from the Taira fleet came up to the shore and invited the Genji side. When five horsemen from the Genji, including Mioya no Jyuuro, headed towards them, they were shot with a strong bow from behind the shield, and Mioya's horse fell. Mioya drew his short sword, but the warrior who emerged from behind the shield attacked with a large naginata. When Mioya ran away, he grabbed the armor of his helmet and pulled him back, and finally tore off the armor and loudly introduced himself as Akushichibei Kagekiyo (〈Found items〉).
