Previous answer is
  Mumei (Yamato Shizu)

Special feature: Yamato Shizu refers to the work before Kaneuji lived in Noshu Mino-gun Shizu, that is, the time when he was named Kaneuji.
Even after he moved to Mino, there was a person who gave the name of Kaneuji to Yamato, and in a broad sense, this is also called Yamato Shizu.
