Hioki Masashi (日置将士) is an electronics store worker who failed in the SASUKE 21 Trials on the Jump Ring. In the SASUKE 22 Trials he failed the Final Hurdle. He was finally able to compete in SASUKE 25 by qualifying through the SASUKE 25 Audition and winning the 50-meter dash.

In the tournament, he performed well by scaling the Soritatsu Kabe on his second try and making it to the new Circle Slider. On the Circle Slider, he didn't get enough height to the ring and fell into the water.

He returned in SASUKE 26. Although his run was all cut, it is known that he timed out on the Soritatsu Kabe.

Hioki also competed in SASUKE 27, where he was shown in a digest failing the Giant Swing. Although he was able to grab the swing and even make the landing, he did not have enough momentum needed to make it up the incline, causing him to lose his balance and fall back into the water.

After a one tournament hiatus, he returned for SASUKE 29. For the first time ever, he cleared the First Stage, doing so with only 2.84 seconds left. In the Second Stage, he started off quickly however on the Unstable Bridge moved hand by hand instead of lunging both forward simultaneously and had trouble landing, which cost him almost 20 seconds. He eventually timed out on the Backstream like many that day.

In SASUKE 30, he cleared the First Stage with 5.7 seconds left. On the Second Stage, he managed to clear the stage for the first time with a close 2 seconds still left on the clock. However, in the Third Stage, Hioki failed the transition to the 4th ledge on the Crazy Cliffhanger.

He returned for SASUKE 31, where he put in an exciting performance. In the First Stage, he was relatively slow and took time to rest on the Soritatsu Kabe. He became the first to clear with 0.1 seconds left. He was the first to attempt the Second Stage, and also the first to clear. But in the Third Stage, history repeated itself when he failed the Crazy Cliffhanger for the 2nd straight time.

In SASUKE 32, where once again wear the number #31, hoping to be the first to clear the First Stage. This didn't happen however as he had a surprising fail on the new Double Pendulum when he fail to get to the bar, similar to the fail he had on the Circle Slider at SASUKE 25. This was his second earliest fail, after SASUKE 27.

SASUKE 33 saw a return to form for Hioki, who wore number 45 for this tournament. Hioki cleared the First Stage with 05.91 seconds remaining, and made a valiant effort in the Second Stage, but eventually timed out on the modified Reverse Conveyor.

In SASUKE 34, Hioki manged to clear the First Stage with ease with 25.49 seconds left. He also manged to redeam himself on the Second Stage. In the Third Stage, he failed on the Ultra Crazy Cliffhanger.

He returned in SASUKE 35, wearing #60, he became the first person to beat the new Dragon Glider by using the reverse - grip technique and went to beat the First Stage with 11.38 seconds left and then went on beat the Second Stage with 16 seconds left. On the Third Stage, despite struggling to cope with the coldness, he beat the Flying Bar and Sidewinder, but he was defeated on the new Planet Bridge.

He returned in SASUKE 36, wearing #71, he clear the First Stage with 8.03 seconds left and then went on beat the Second Stage with 13.11 seconds left. On the Third Stage, although he suffered coldness again, he once again cleared the Flying Bar and Sidewinder. This time, he clear the Planet Bridge and even the first jump on the Ultra Crazy Cliffhanger, but he was unable to hold on the second moving ledge.
