(Mo'i, Ruler of Hawaii by Conquest) KEAWENUI-A-UMI
Keawenui-a-Umi seized power as Ruler of Hawai'i Island when his brother Kealiiokaloa died. The rightful heir Kukailani (son of Kealiiokaloa) was still a child. Keawenui-a-Umi eventually killed Kukailani, the legitimate king, and Kukailani's eldest son Prince Makakaualii. The six existing district chiefs of Hawaii (the Alii-ai-moku of Hilo, Hamakua, Puna, Ka'u, Kohala, and Kona) all rebelled and were defeated. Keawenui's reign marked the replacement of all these chiefly families with new family lines, related to Keawenui-a-Umi. Therefore, most if not all the chiefs of Hawaii, can usually trace their lineage back to the family of Umi, since this replacement of all the district chiefs during the reign of Keawenui-a-Umi re-set the lineages.
Keawenui-a-Umi ruled the BIg Island as conqueror king, under the waiting eye of Kukailani's survviving daughter Kaikilani-Nui-Alii-Wahine-o-Puna, who later herself ruled the island. She, in turn, ended up marrying Keawenui's three sons by Kawaihalau (Koihalauwailaua) the sacred chiefess of Kauai. These sons were Kanaloakuaana, Kanaloakuakawiea and Kanaloakapulehu. She had issue by them.

Pupuakea is said to be a son of Keawenui-a-Umi, mother unknown. As younger brother of Lonoikamakahiki, he was appointed Alii-ai-moku of Ka'u, after the defeat of all the rebel district chiefs by Keawenui-a-Umi. He was the only chief who stood by Lonoikamakahiki when it was incorrectly thought that he had murdered his wife and co-regent Kaikilani (daughter of Kuka'ilani).
