Yorinobu, seething with resentment and fueled by ambition, had devised a plan to humiliate Fujitora and expose his supposed disloyalty to the Arasaka clan.

He knew that he couldn't simply deny the accusations, as Yorinobu had carefully crafted his lies to appear credible.Instead, Fujitora chose a different tactic.

He launched a counteroffensive, exposing Yorinobu's own misdeeds and questionable alliances.

"This petty squabbling is unbecoming of Arasaka heirs."He turned to Yorinobu, his eyes cold and unforgiving.

"You have disgraced yourself and our family," he said. "You will be confined to your quarters until further notice.

"He then turned to Fujitora, a hint of pride in his eyes.
