Ichigo was able to dual-wield Zangetsu after successfully reforging it into two distinct swords. At Silbern, Uryu approached Yhwach, who was sitting on his throne. Uryu wore a Sternritter uniform.
Uryu was welcomed as Yhwach's son and asked to join the war. Several Sternritters are outraged that Yhwach chose a stranger to be their new leader. Bazz-B is noticeably angry with the announcement. The Sternritters began to argue that Jugram Haschwalth was destined to be the next leader since he was the fittest to be named Yhwach's successor.
Uryu eventually asks Yhwach why he picked him to be his successor. He said that because of his announcement, there was animosity among several Sternritters. The former is relieved since he does not want sheeps following him. Uryu eventually realizes Yhwach's decision and aspires to do his best for his master.
