Subjective answer:

The thing that upsets Okonkwo the most internally, is the fact that Nwoye is too much like his grandfather Unoka.

The one action that gets Okonkwo the most upset externally is finding out that Nwoye has been hanging around the Christians, at which point Okonkwo confronts Nwoye and nearly chokes him to death.
