Later, when the Onin War (1467-1477) broke out and an internal conflict occurred between East and West squads in Kaga Province, north of Yoshizaki Gobo, as the base of Hongan-ji Temple at that time in Echizen Province, the Monto of Senshu-ji School took the side of Kochiyo TOGASHI who took part in the West squad, while the Monto of Honganji School, through the assistance of Takakage ASAKURA, the Daimyo of Echizen (the 7th chief), took the side of Masachika TOGASHI, Kochiyo's brother and a former Shugo deported from Kaga, who belonged to East squad, and deported Kochiyo in 1474. (In other words, Ikko-Ikki in Kaga was started as a power struggle inside Shinshu)
やがて応仁の乱（1467年-1477年）が起こり、当時越前国にあった本願寺の根拠吉崎御坊の北、加賀国で東軍・西軍に分かれての内乱が生じると、専修寺派の門徒が西軍に与した富樫幸千代に味方したのに対し、本願寺派の門徒は越前の大名朝倉孝景(7代当主)の仲介で、文明6年（1474年）、加賀を追い出された前守護で幸千代の兄である東軍の富樫政親に味方して幸千代を追い出した（つまり、加賀の一向一揆は、最初は真宗内の勢力争いでもあった）。
