So kubo just said an ocean exists in the soul society but it is far away
It wasn't pretty quickly and ichigo needed to literally distract uryu to do that. Something he has never done for weaker opponents.And Ichigo puts him on the ground pretty quickly. Besides, Ichigo both times fought Uryu while he used VS+Sklaverei, Renji got floored immediately when Uryu used VS+Sklaverei.
This is only means renji is weaker than uryu, which the anime shows. Also uryu, stated renji has the means to kill him. So he would still scaleIn fact Renji couldn’t hurt base Uryu with his second strongest attack and could barely scratch VS Uryu with an attack that he needed 20 seconds to charge. Meanwhile base uryu chose to dodge tf out of the way from a simple getusga Ichigo threw his way and even in their second fight when using VS+Sklaverei still chose to counter every getusga from Ichigo’s small blade with attacks instead of just outright tanking them like he did for any of Renji’s strongest attacks
Honestly I don’t see how Renji vs Uryu has any correlation with Ichigo scaling when Renji could barely get him to use his strongest form when in both Ichigo fights he opts for it pretty much from the get go. I’m also like 99% sure it was stated that in the first fight Ichigo was holding back while Uryu was going all out. Which would also help explain why in their second fight Ichigo puts him on the ground in like 40 seconds
