Appointed Chinjufu-shogun in 1335 , he allied himself with Nitta Yoshisada against Ashikaga Takauji , who was defeated on Mii-dera . This victory allowed Emperor Go-Daigo to return to Kyoto as well. Akiie went back to Mutsu with Prince Yoshinaga (later Emperor Go-Murakami ) to raise troops. Then he returned, besieged Kamakura, and took it in 1337. On the way to Kyoto he scored several victories, but was beaten and killed at Sakai-no-ura ( Izumi province ) by Kō no Moronao ( 高 師 直 ; † 1351). He was only 21 years old.

Together with Wada Masatada and Kusunoki Masanori, he defeated Ashikaga Yoshiakira and moved to Kyoto in 1352. After he had to withdraw due to various difficulties, he stayed on the side of the South Court in Yoshino for life . There he held the positions of Udaijin , among other things .
      • Akiyasu (or Akihiro; 顕 泰 ) was Akiyoshi's second son and, like his father, governor of the province of Ise. He worked after the merger of the North and South Courts in 1392 for the Shogun and helped to put down the uprising of Ōuchi Yoshihiro ( 大 内 義 弘 ; 1355-1400) in 1399. He received half of Iga Province and Kōga District in Ōmi Province from Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu .
        • Mitsumasa ( 満 雅 ; † 1429) was a son of Akiyasu and in 1402 became governor of Ise. When he saw that, contrary to the agreements of 1392, the successor ( Shōkō ) of Emperor Go-Komatsu was elected from the North Court, he planned to march to Kyoto and bring Prince Oguro, grandson of Emperor Go-Kameyama , to the throne. But he was unable to carry out this plan in 1414. A second attempt in 1428 at the time of the accession to the throne of Emperor Go-Hanazono failed and he lost his life at the Battle of Iwata in Ise.
          • Noritomo ( 教具 ; 1423–1471), Mitsumasa's eldest son, was governor of Ise and from 1468 also Shugo of Ise. He suppressed an uprising Hatakeyama Yoshinari ( 畠 山 義 就 ; 1437? –1491) against the Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa in 1462 . At the time of the Ōnin War he took Ashikaga Yoshimi ( 足 利 義 視 ; 1439-1491), who had to flee from Kyoto.
            • Masasato ( 政 郷 , initially Masatomo ( 政 具 ); 1449-1508), Noritomos son, was governor of Ise, and from 1471 Shugo. During the Ōnin War he attacked the Ōuchi in 1472 , and in 1479 he lost the post of Shugo to Isshiki Yoshiharu, whose father also held this post once.
              • Harutomo ( 晴 具 ; 1503–1563), son of Kichika ( 材 親 ) and grandson of Masasato, received permission from Ashikaga Yoshiharu to add the character haru to his name so that he can refer to it from Tomokuni ( 具 国 ) Harutomo changed - after he changed it from Chikahira ( 親 平 ). He was governor of Ise and was able to expand his power to the east and west bordering provinces of Shima and Kii . Harutomo was also proficient in waka and renga poetry, as well as tea ceremonies .
                • Tomonori ( 具 教 ; 1528–1576), Harutomo's son, was attacked in 1569 by Oda Nobunaga . As a condition of peace, Tomonori's son Tomofusa must adopt Nobunaga's son Nobukatsu as heir. In 1576 a former vassal of the Kitabatake attacked them on the orders of Nobunaga, in which Tomonori perished and the power of the Kitabatake was broken. After the death of his sons, the ownership of the Kitabatake passed to Nobukatsu and thus the Oda.

Two of Nobuoki's descendants, one of whom was the head of the Ryōzen Shrine, were raised to the nobility in the Meiji period and were given the title of baron .
