Well thanks but... Of course that's exactly it IF Nino has a copy of the photo, But Nino doesn't possess any copies of it. That's the point. It's not a *why would*, but a *how could*. Does that make sense? Ah did you think I was asking 'How could Fuutarou be embarrassed if the photo was leaked?' (where in this case 'How could' is kinda interchangeable with 'Why would') ?

Presumably, Futaro isn't proud of his younger "yankee" days compared to his current image. So he's afraid that Nino could see through the Kintarou ruse and use the photo to ruin his social standing/reputation at school. The "embarrassing photo" blackmail is a pretty common trope in anime/manga.
