After the Sentinel Robot crisis, Hawking spent two peaceful months training and expanding the League of Legends Game before resuming his search for Otsutsuki Isshiki. He failed to locate Isshiki and considered luring him out, while wishing he could spend more time in the Naruto World.

• Nick Fury accepted Hawking's warning about the Tesseract and left, while Hawking handed the conference cleanup to Susan and returned to training.

After the Five Kage established the Allied Shinobi Forces, Tsunade and Jiraiya arranged for Hawking to help in the coming battle against Akatsuki. Hawking learned Obito’s plans from Sasuke and agreed to join the fight, provided the alliance timed the decisive battle around his limited time in their world.

• Hawking used his blade to send the Third Raikage's soul away, ending the Impure World Reincarnation and shocking Yakushi Kabuto.

Hawking stopped Yakushi Kabuto’s attack on Turtle Island but deliberately let him escape so he could summon Reanimated Uchiha Madara for the coming battle. Hawking revealed the war plans to Naruto, moved the group to the Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters, and left Naruto with instructions for helping Sasuke and Itachi during the decisive battle.

Hawking tested how far his Transfiguration Charm could go and discovered that it could create real food, magical objects, and living animals. He could create a human body but not an intelligent soul, leading him to consider making Ōtsutsuki bodies for the Ten-Tails and Chakra Pills.

• Hawking ate bread created by his Transfiguration Charm and confirmed it provided real nourishment at the cost of magical power.
