JR Rail Pass from Hiroshima to Tokyo

Hello,

I am heading to Tokyo in July. I will be traveling from Kyoto Station to Hiroshima Station on the Hikari Shinkansen, about 2 hours.
However, I am having an issue finding the correct train back to Tokyo FROM Hiroshima Station.
I see a ton of Nozomi Shinkansen trains from Hiroshima Station to Tokyo (which is not covered by the JR Pass).
I would like to take the HIKARI Shinkansen if there is an option since that's included with the JR Pass. I am having a hard time figuring it out.
Not sure if I need to head back to Kyoto Station and then head to Tokyo from there on the JR pass?

Thank you for your help and suggestion!
