No, Bazz-B isn't defeated yet. He seem to be the kind of guy who bursts right into a fight without evaluating his opponent, which is a weakness on his behalf, but he's not weak. He might get injured by the slash he got at the end of the chapter, but I doubt that will kill him. He will for sure use his Vollständig and Heilig Pfeil soon.

I wonder if Kenpachi could manage to kill Äs. He doesn't seem to fear anything, he didn't even get afraid when he was robbed of all senses by Tôsen's Bankai. He might fear something, like watching Yachiru getting killed, but he has his full power unlocked now. I think he's one of very few captains who's capable of fighting Äs Nödt.
