Agreed with your posts. Foremost, I think Renji wants to give Mask back for the assault and injuries he got in the first invasion. Also, he could possibly be on captain level now. Body healed and restored, reiryoku restored, Zanpakutô repaired, new clothing possibly containing some kind of protection, and training in an atmosphere with abnormal reishi concentration - he seems to be strong enough now to be able to kill Mask.

Mas has grown on me as a character. At first he seemed like a stupid guy only focused on physical strength, and I didn't like him that much. He seemed to be very much alike Yammy. But now I like him more. He's an interesting character, but there's still tings with him that isn't that interesting. He's played his part now, I feel, I don't mind if Renji kills him in the next chapter.
