Sakakibara Yasumasa

"Allocation of fiefs is the opposite of war: giving land, not taking it."

- Sakakibara Yasumasa

Sakakibara Yasumasa (1548 – 1606) was a Japanese samurai, serving as one of Tokugawa Ieyasu's four generals, the "Four Guardians".

Yasumasa earned the trust of his lord when he fought for him some members of his extended family, including Toyotomi Hideyoshi, during the difficult Sengoku Period

When his master was approached by the Assassins with a plan for retrieving a Sword of Eden, Yasumasa was the most suspicious of the Assassins but was still impressed by their aptitudes.
