==Early life==
Kuroda Yoshitaka was born in [[Himeji]] (姫路) on December 22, 1546, as Mankichi (万吉), the son of [[Kuroda Mototaka]].
Shigetaka served as a senior retainer of [[Kodera Masamoto]], the lord of Himeji, and was so highly praised that Shigetaka's son Mototaka was allowed to marry Masamoto's adopted daughter (Akashi Masakaze’s daughter) and

Araki's revolt eventually concluded in 1579 at the [[Siege of Itami (1579)|Siege of Itami]], culminating in Yoshitaka's rescue. Due to his long imprisonment (with lack of space for sleeping and sitting), Yoshitaka suffered a leg disorder and lost his eyesight in one eye for the rest of his life. In 1582, he fought in the [[Siege of Takamatsu]] against the Mōri clan.

He fought at the [[Battle of Yamazaki]] in 1582 under Hideyoshi, avenging the death of [[Oda Nobunaga]].<ref name="ST">{{cite book|last1=Turnbull|first1=Stephen|title=The Samurai Sourcebook|date=1998|publisher=Cassell & Co|location=London|isbn=9781854095237|pages=276}}</ref>
He participated in the [[Battle of Shizugatake]] in 1583 and the [[Battle of Komaki-Nagakute]] in 1584. Also led Toyotomi forced in the campaign to [[Invasion of Shikoku|conquer Shikoku]] in 1585.
Shortly before 1587, Yoshitaka was ordered by Hideyoshi to lead an attack into [[Siege of Kagoshima]] at [[Kyushu]].<ref name=Turnbull>{{cite book|last1=Turnbull|first1=Stephen|title=The Samurai Sourcebook|date=1998|publisher=Cassell & Co|location=London|isbn=9781854095237|page=240}}</ref> Along with him was the Christian ''daimyō'' [[Takayama Ukon]]. After seeing the thriving Christian population of Kyushu, under Ukon's influence, Yoshitaka was baptized with the name ドン・シメオン (Dom Simeão = Don Simeon). After a visit to the Jesuit-controlled port of Nagasaki, Hideyoshi became fearful of the powerful influence that Jesuits and the Christian ''daimyōs'' wielded.
In 1587, he made his famous edict that expelled foreign missionaries and ordered all the Christian samurai under his rule to abandon their faith. While Ukon resisted the edict and lost his status, Yoshitaka gave up his new religion and adopted a monk's habit, calling himself ''Josui'' (如水)
===Sekigahara campaign===
{{see also|Sekigahara campaign}}
In 1600, Yoshitaka was seemingly on the Tokugawa side during the Sekigahara campaign, having clashed against [[Ōtomo Yoshimune]] at the [[Battle of Ishigakibaru]] and also, having participated at the [[Siege of Yanagawa]]. In reality, he aimed to conquer the entire region of [[Kyūshū]] for his own during the major commotion of the Sekigahara campaign, even momentarily conquering seven of the island's provinces, a feat which ended in failure however due to Tokugawa Ieyasu's victory in the [[Battle of Sekigahara]]▼
Before the outbreak of Sekigahara conflict between [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] with [[Ishida Mitsunari]], Yoshitaka and his son, [[Kuroda Nagamasa]], made contact with [[Ii Naomasa]], a Tokugawa general, and forming a pact of alliance. through the Kuroda clan, Naomasa successfully swayed the other military commanders to support the Tokugawa clan.{{sfn|Noda|2007}} It was recorded that Yoshitaka and his son, Nagamasa, bore grudge towards Mitsunari due to their personal conflict with him and alleged mismanagements during the [[Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598)]].<ref name="rekishikaido; 7generals korea">{{cite web |author1=Watanabe Daimon |title=「石田三成襲撃事件」で襲撃は起きていない? 画策した7人の武将、そして家康はどうした? |trans-title="Ishida Mitsunari Attack Incident" No attack occurred?
