Oroku Wōji Chōki (小禄 王子 朝奇, 9 November 1676 – 3 May 1721), also known by his Chinese style name Shō Mō (尚 網) or Shō Kō (尚 綱), was a prince of Ryukyu Kingdom.
Chōki was the third son of King Shō Tei. His mother was Makabe Aji-ganashi (真壁按司加那志), the successor consort of King Shō Tei, so he was also a full-brother of Prince Misato Chōtei (美里 朝禎).[1] Chōki was the originator of royal family (具志頭御殿).[2] He served as sessei from 1705 to 1712.[3]
Chōki's second son, (美里 朝孝), was adopted by Misato Chōtei, and later became the second head of royal family (大宜見御殿). Chōki's third son, (真壁 朝盈), was adopted by grandmother Makabe Aji-ganashi, and was the originator of royal family (真壁御殿).[2]
