Hogyoku, the versatile wish-granting device from Bleach, capable of manifesting incredible powers based on the deepest desires of the host, comparable to Marvel's Infinity Gauntlet when all six Infinity Stones are gathered.
With the power of Hogyoku, I can even traverse through various timelines of different worlds, exploring infinite unknown possibilities.
In order to announce the arrival of the king in this realm, I have set my sights on the River of Time—
"The unchanging river of deathly silence, how will it change with the king's presence? Let me witness it firsthand—Shatter, Kyoka Suigetsu~"
...
[Background: Post-Fourth Shinobi World War and the time of peace, Naruto has just become the Seventh Hokage, but has not yet married Hinata.]
...
Several days ago, I arrived at Konoha as the esteemed and supreme figure of the "Eternal Honorable Fire Daimyō", where the higher-ups of Konoha and even the Seventh Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki, treated me with utmost respect, without any suspicion, as the entire world has already been hypnotized by my "Kyoka Suigetsu"~
Unlike the original timeline, due to Naruto's busy official duties, he has not yet married his official partner, Hinata. However, with my "assistance" a few days ago, they have now set the wedding date for two months later.
And with my arrival as the first move in the Ninja World, I am prepared to make my presence felt!

...
[8:30 P.M.]
After dinner, wearing black-framed glasses, a gentle smile on my lips, I slowly entered a place where I was not supposed to be—the love nest of the Seventh Hokage Naruto Uzumaki and his fiancée Hinata Hyuga~
"Your Excellency, and Miss Hinata, it's time as per the agreement, I have come to greet you~"
"Eh...?"
The moment Hinata caught sight of me, it was as if a switch had been flicked in her mind, vaguely recalling something, yet not quite remembering. This sense of odd discomfort made her display a puzzled expression involuntarily.
"You... you're the Daimyō, Mr. Sosuke...? Why are you here? Is there something urgent...?"
"Em, the esteemed Seventh Hokage, I prefer it when you address me as Aizen-sama~"
Reacting instinctively, Naruto shielded Hinata behind him, but I paid no heed, offering a trademark fake smile and gently addressing Hinata, "Miss Hinata, it's time for the Hokage's wife's 'Exclusive Trial'~"
"What is this 'Exclusive Trial'...!? What is that?" The Seventh Hokage was puzzled by this unfamiliar term.
"Eh? Miss Hinata, you haven't told the Seventh Hokage yet~? It's an important tradition that has been passed down since the founding of Konoha by the First Hokage Hashirama, a necessary 'Exclusive Trial' to become the wife of the Hokage," explained by me.
After my reminder, Hinata finally "recalled" that she must be guided by me, the supreme "Eternal Honorable Fire Daimyō", undergo the "Exclusive Trial" necessary to become the Hokage's wife~
"Yes, yes... I remember now... I'm sorry, I forgot to tell Naruto-kun earlier... It's such an important tradition... to become a wife worthy of Naruto-kun, to become the Hokage's wife, I must take this 'Exclusive Trial' seriously!" Hinata said.
"That's right~... Sorry, Seventh Hokage, even though I interrupted your time together with Hinata, we can't neglect the 'trial'. This 'trial' is crucial for both of you who have just set a wedding date~" I added.
"Oh, I see, it's such an important trial... Hinata, do your best, and I'll always be by your side to support you! And I'll count on you, Mr. Sosuk... Aizen-sama...!" Naruto, after hearing our conversation, seemed surprised but accepting of the situation.
Of course, Naruto and Hinata may not have noticed, but I am well aware of the resistance in their hearts~
This is the new ability I gained after assimilating the power of the Hogyoku, an ability enhanced by the Hogyoku, similar to the ability of Shūkurō Tsukishima to alter the past memories of others.
However, compared to that, the complete hypnotic effect of Kyoka Suigetsu appears much more potent. This power even fooled a powerhouse like Naruto at Six Paths level plus the strongest tailed beast, Kurama, as they failed to perceive my abilities or even realize their subconscious resistance.
For them, at this moment, the reflected moon in the mirror is the true image of their world~
