The Chiba Clan became followers of the Jishū Sect and Raikou-ji Temple became a prominent temple for the sect in the Kanto area. During the Edo Period, the temple converted to the Jōdo Sect and then became Raikou-ji Temple (the kanji characters for the name changed slightly).

Castle (Shisui Town, Sakura City). There is an ancient document dating back to 1577, which states that Hara Taneyoshi secured the residence and land of Daigan-ji Temple. The Oyumi area was often the target of many attacks, as its close proximity to the port made it an important hub for both land and water transportation. According to this ancient document, Hara Taneyoshi regained the Oyumi region, which had been stolen seven years previously by the Satomi clan in Awa Province (southern Chiba Prefecture). When the Hojo clan was defeated in the Battle of Odawara in 1590, the Hara
