He would have sook out Aizen and used it if it was that powerful. It is probably not Zanka no Tachi level either way.. If we take that one out as it still being too dangerous, I guess one could still say his Bankai is pretty powerful. Another theory might be it is damaging to friend and foe alike. One less likely might be it disobeys certain rules of Soul Society. A fourth one might be that his Bankai is related to sight somewhat. And finally, a last note. He says where "others" can see. It means that Ukitake CAN see it and HAS seen it. Maybe.. It was the cause of his disease?

I don't think that it could be the fourth theory because a bankai cannot be unrelated to a shikai, i think it could be the third one "(...) might be it disobeys certain rules of Soul Society." maybe he sayied not where others can see because if they saw that they would know he did a crime to the laws of the Soul Society. And it's bankai should be PRETTY POWERFUL, because if it was a common bankai i don't think he should be Yamamoto's succesor as the Capitan Commander of all the Gotei 13, it should be maybe near the level of Zanka no Tachi.
