賤ヶ岳の戦い
Following the Battle of Shizugatake in 1583, Wakisaka came to be known as one of the "shichi-hon-yari" (七本槍), or Seven Spears of Shizugatake. These Seven would be among Hideyoshi's most trusted generals, especially in naval combat. Wakisaka was granted the fief of Awaji Island, worth 30,000 koku, in 1585.
