By resolving the two different parts of himself and bidding them farewell to fight alone while also claiming to be Zangetsu, he may have merged with them. Like, he doesn't need to ask for their help or needs them to get out of his way or fight with him, because they've become one with him. All shinigami are their Zanpakuto he didn't merge with them Zanpakuto are just reflections of their useres souls in which their zanpakuto are their souls meaning they are them which is what Oetsu was trying to get renji and ichigo to understand orginally. But why have no other Shinigami done something similar with their own Zanpakutou? Do the others value the separation between themselves and their Zanpakutou that much?
