3? I take it mean Unitake, Shunsui and Shūhei Hisagi?

While we can pretty much say that Kubo had not come up with Shūhei Hisagi's Zanpakuto yet.

When Yamamoto was talking about dual Zanpakuto. He was talking about the zanpakuto spirits was he not?

I believe Spiffstarr was referring to Ichigo as the third one to have dual Zanpakutõ. Both of Ichigo's current blades originate from the Asauchi that Nimaiya forged for him, so arguably they're both his Zanpakutõ, even though one represents his Quincy powers. Shūhei, on the other hand, only has one Zanpakutõ spirit, Kazeshini, which manifests as a pair of kusarigama-like weapons.

Are you implying that Kyōraku and Ukitake have more than one Zanpakutō spirit?
