After this last part of his fight with Gremmy, I'm starting to think his skikai special ability is to make other people love fighting as much as he does. So he switches on his special ability and anybody he wants will feel compelled to fight him. Which he would love.

If that's the case, then his bankai would have to be an enhanced/modified version of that. Maybe he can make both himself and his opponent immortal until he gets bored and switches it off? In either case, it would mean he would have a non-melee type zanpakuto, which would mean he technically wouldn't be allowed in squad 11. But, I guess, he's the friggin kenpachi, so, whatever.

But I do agree: he doesn't really need a bankai.
