Origin

In Japanese folklore, Sui-Ki is one of the four legendary oni said to have served the powerful clan leader Fujiwara no Chikata. The most famous account of Fujiwara no Chikata's Four Oni appears in volume 16 of the 14th-century war chronicle Taiheiki, in the chapter "Nihon Chōteki no Koto" ("The Enemies of the Imperial Court of Japan"). During the reign of Emperor Tenji, Chikata is said to have led a rebellion against the Imperial Court with four oni: Kin-ki, Fū-ki, Sui-ki, and Ongyōki. Sui-Ki was said to possess the ability to cause floods that drowned enemies on land. When the court sent the warrior and poet Ki no Tomoo to suppress the rebellion, Tomoo composed a waka that caused the four oni to retreat, leading to Chikata's defeat. The Four Oni are also regarded in some traditions as prototypes of the ninja. Other versions of the legend replace Sui-ki and Ongyōki with Doki and Kaki, the Earth Oni and Fire Oni, respectively.
