Hope I'm not too late for this...

I agree with the Caribou story, while I can invest a little interest in him but from what I see in latest chapter, the story being dragged (prolonged) unnecessarily. I mean: we saw Caribou getting a$$-kicked by Jinbe, then his crew attempts to rescue him, then Caribou being handed to G5, then AGAIN his crew attempts to rescue him. So what's next? Yarisugi hold off the pirates and handed Caribou to Impel Down and yet again his crew goes to ID to rescue him???

About Luffy. And finally we have reached the middle of the arc where (in previous arcs) the main protagonist gets stuck somewhere else far far FAR away from the action, only to turn up at the last possible moment to save the day... or should I say, save the arc.

Oda did make a good point in dozing off when being blanket by snow. Watching documentaries in TV, I remember seeing survival / disaster stuffs where when people gets sleepy while trapped in ice / snow and after sleeping = death.

About the shock Law gave to Vergo in his "room"? I deduced Oda took the reference from the heart shocking machine in the operating room, when patient's heart stopped the doctor will use this device to attempt to shock the heart back into beating. Come to think of it, all the things Law did with his powers does have its connection to a hospital's operating theatre:

1) Law creates a room using his Ope Ope no Mi powers. Operating room, get it?

2) Slicing up people and stuffs within the vacinity of his room sphere, isn't that what doctors do in operating theatres, slicing and cutting?

3) Shambles - rearrange things to his liking. This is equal to doctors operating on one's arm and places it onto another person.

4) Scan - refers to using x-ray machine

5) Mes - this is kinda like heart-transplant, taking out a heart from a patient (before putting it into another)

6) Shock attack - what I just said above
