"Castle Rampage!"
With a sweep of his Zanpakuto, Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto sent raging flames surging toward Hawking.
Before the flames could reach Hawking, he used Shunpo to catch up to them, swinging his flame-wreathed Zanpakuto upward right behind them.
"Shoumei!"
The first wave of raging flames was merely a cover. The Zanpakuto strike following close behind was the true killing blow.
However, it was clearly useless against Hawking. Neither the flames nor the Zanpakuto could get anywhere near him.
As Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto launched his attack, Hawking imitated Hyoga, sweeping his arms from side to side as he erupted with Cosmo and gathered freezing air.
Then he pressed his hands together, aimed at the incoming flames and Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto hidden within them, and launched his counterattack.

Countless magma-like flames immediately burst up from beneath Hawking, gathered together, and exploded in an instant.
The power of this move could turn hundreds of kilometers of land into scorched earth.

"Captain Commander, if this is all you've got, then this is getting boring."
"So you weren't boasting when you said you could
