Kenpachi is incredibly strong to not have a Bankai. Now at full power, he could probably be of good help to Ichigo in the final fight with Yhwach. Perhaps we'll see a "combo fight" with more captains helping Ichigo, like in Fake Karakura Town when Hitsugaya, Sajin and Shunsui teamed up to fight Aizen, with Shinji and others joining later.
