Oto-shiki stiffened up in front of Yata-no-karasu and said, “Receiving the information that the descendant of the heavenly deities had been coming here, I have been waiting and waiting mornings and evenings. Oh! Dear bird! It must be a good omen that you are croaking so earnestly!” Therefore, Oto-shiki received Yata-no-karasu warmly with eight dishes of feasts.
Leaving the residence of E-shiki, Yata-no-karasu visited to that of Oto-shiki, who was the younger between Shiki brothers, and told him just the same words as that he had urged E-shiki before, “I say. The descendant of heavenly deities summons you now. Come on!”

Listening to the words of Yata-no-karasu, E-shiki got angry and said him, “Why this bird is croaking importunately. I am now indignant at the news that the descendant of heavenly deities is coming here!” Because E-shiki tried to shoot an arrow, Yata-no-karasu took to flight in a hurry.
On the 7th of November, the royal army had intention to assault on Shiki-hiko. At first, the Sumera-mikoto sent a messenger to summon E-shiki who was the elder between Shiki brothers. We can find another example, in addition to the example of the Ukashi brothers, which suggests that in those days, there would have been diarchies in which brothers shared governmental or authoritative powers between brothers.

Soldiers of Kume tribe sang and acted upon the secret order but not at their discretion. Then, the Sumera-mikoto said, “It is a prudent general who becomes conceited, even if he has defeated his enemy. Now, though our main enemy has been already ruined, there are so many gangs who are trembling with fear. We don’t know the time of day. We should not stay here any longer.” Therefore, they left there without delay.
Again, the soldiers of the Kume-tribe began to sing another song. “Though one says that the Emishis are so strong as to defeat hundred men by a single Emishi, they have been defeated with no resistance!” Emishi means indigenous people who had refused to be subjected to the reign of the Sumera-mikoto in ancient Japan.
