Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: The Confrontation

Hiroshi and his allies planned a daring move to expose Taro. They decided to confront him during a major celebration at the Takeda estate, where many influential figures would be present. It was a risky plan, but it was the best chance they had to bring Taro's schemes to light.

On the night of the celebration, Hiroshi discreetly gathered his evidence and prepared for the confrontation. He approached Lord Takeda, requesting a private audience to present his findings. Intrigued and concerned, Lord Takeda agreed.

In the presence of Lord Takeda and several other important guests, Hiroshi confronted Taro, laying out the evidence of his treachery. Taro attempted to deny the accusations, but the overwhelming proof, combined with testimonies from the henchmen who had turned against him, left him with no defense.

Lord Takeda, furious at the betrayal, ordered Taro's immediate arrest. The guests murmured in shock and disapproval as Taro was led away, his plans in ruins. Hiroshi's honor and loyalty were publicly vindicated, and he was commended for his bravery and perseverance.
