We've seen previously that Toshiro is an a clever fellow, even when he is overpowered he does seem to always have a strategy to win regardless of the odds stacked against him. Bazz-B feels like a child waving a sword, dangerous but not entirely deadly. He also feels a bit overconfident to me, so no matter what he did say about his flames, I think Toshiro can indeed beat him.

Indeed we know nothing of Cang Du, so all we can do is watch. With every step I have noticed that the Sternritter are very cautious with their fighting and would prefer quick battles as opposed to a drawn out one. I think that this could be their undoing. They also always seem to have a trump card at each turn so its likely that they could be baiting specific captains who seem to be vulnerable in battle. Sending Jugram to Kyouraku seems to be a ploy to defeat the Gotei 13 in one fell swoop and then pick off the rest of the Captains at their leisure. I have a feeling that attacking now is a diversion to attack the Soul Palace.
