It's implied that Marude and he would have had to have fought until one died or until he got word of the clan massacre (at which point Yoshitoki's motive of protecting his family from ghoul laws would be moot).

However, when Matsuri reappers after Furata is ousted he states very clearly that V is responsible for Yoshitoki's death. So its likely V assassinated him at the same time they  massacred the Main House & Marude just happened to be there (they may even have been fighting at the time).
