Mori Nagayoshi (森長可? 1558 - 1584) was an officer under the Oda clan, and the older brother of the famous Mori Ranmaru following the Sengoku period of the 16th century of Japan.
It is known that Nagayoshi had such a bad temper and great ruthlessness during battle, that he became known as the "Devil". Nagayoshi fought a very difficult battle for the likes of Toyotomi Hideyoshi during the Battle of Komaki and Nagakute, but this attempt ultimately took his life.
