Yasuke's History

Yasuke was a retainer of the Japanese warlord Oda Nobunaga and the only African sword-bearer in history. In 1579, the Portuguese Empire brought him as a slave to the port city of Sakai. According to the Chronicle of Nobunaga, he entered into Oda's service a few years later after capturing his attention as the first African man he had ever met and impressing him with his strong stature and intelligence. In 1581, he invaded Iga Province on behalf of his lord, devastating the region. Despite having destroyed Fujibayashi Naoe's home, Yasuke later allied himself with the young Iga Assassin.
