So, I have briefly brought this up in the discussion thread but I figured Id made a more clear case for why I believe Byakuya will become beastly during this chapter.
Byakuya was clearly the worst wounded out of the captains in the Gotei 13. Me theory comes from an early translation of the chapter 519 where Krinji claims that you will become healthier from his reiatsu cleansing technique. Right now all I can find is this but this also points towards improvement from having used his technique:
Improvement was also already shown by Both Ichigo and Renji being able to take a punch from Krinji
Now I might buy that Ichigo could do this without improving as he is the main guy and has constant upgrades but Renji suddenly being awesome? Somethings got to give, and I believe the more Reiatsu you clean out, the more new and improved reiatsu you get.
So why would the Reiatsu become improved? Well because the level of training is on "Spirit King-level". This is beyond what either of them have ever done and Byakuya is going to stay the longest, get cleansed the most and thus improve the most.
If we look back to his defeat and really ever since Ichigo defeated him Kubo has been building on his empathy and likability. Hes given him a new reason to be motivatred again after leaving some of the prior pride aspects behind him and that is to protect his loved ones, so we have that as a driving factor, one that he sacrificed his life for (as far as he knew). Motivation won't be a problem, also it makes no sense to bring him back at the same level he was before he got beaten, if so then he will only function as fodder. To bring Byakuya back, seeing as he is such a popular figure just has to lead to some where greater then before.
And with the next stage being a Zanpakutou training it seems all the steps of having him restored and improved are laid out.
I believe Byakuya will come back at over 9000!
