No, no.. Yamamoto is the strongest shinigami born in the last 2000 years. NOT the strongest shinigami born. Shinigami have assumedly been around much longer than that and so has the Soul King. I am also assuming, that Zero Squad has generations, and Ichibei is to it somewhat like Yamamoto is to the Gotei 13, one never replaced or the like. Also... Gremmys power was also highly destructive to Soul Society. Had that meteorite actually crashed, it would have caused pretty much an extreme amount of destruction. Maybe the Zero Squad ISN'T using their power due to some convention similar to the one of the four most powerful espada?
