While playing the Rebuilding chapter in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you’ll come across a quest named The Tea Ceremony where you must attend an occasion organized by Imai Sokyu.
This is where two ladies, Otama or Wakasa, will show up, and you need to confront them. But who should you confront? We have the answer for you.
The section below contains spoilers.
Should you confront Otama or Wakasa in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
The choice of confronting either Otama or Wakasa shows up towards the end of The Tea Ceremony.

Now, to get a faster ending, you should confront Wakasa. She’s the Golden Teppo and assassinating her is the main objective of the questline. Once you’ve chosen to go the Wakasa way, you have to kill her using a gun shortly after she invites you (Naoe) back.
Once you’re done killing her, you can continue with the rest of the story. But if you choose to confront Otama instead, you will find out she isn’t the Golden Teppo, and you have to ultimately get rid of Wakasa.
You then have to chase down Otama in Sakai, kill her, and get a letter that reveals the true identity of Wakasa. After that, head over to the Osaka Castle to assassinate Wakasa. She will be located on the topmost part of the castle surrounded by a level six enemy.
Wakasa is a level eight boss and you will then have to fight her to death to complete the quest and get a legendary Tanto Sword and some Mon as rewards.
This part just extends the entire plot and your choice won’t actually matter throughout the rest of Assassin’s Creed Shadows‘ story.
