Day 28: Bill's Hardware
[ from here ]
Could Nami be acting any more natural? Could her smile be any more confident?
Perhaps, although she'd done this what seemed like thousands of times, on her way to make the millions of beli she needed to free her town. And while pirates were her usual targets, stealing pirates' booty held with it the threat of death. Here? The worst that would happen to them was a scolding look and a mild sedation. Nothing big, right..?
..Unless they took her and made her do the things that Luffy had been forced to do. That wouldn't be very fun.
Still, she was going to undertake this job with the utmost professionalism; just because they were on a different planet didn't mean that she would stop stealing things like she meant it.
Nami let herself into the store as if she were a regular. She looked around slowly - at first glance it seemed that it was a normal hardware store. Maybe with a bit better technology, but she could certainly deal with that.

This was not going at all how he'd hoped. What the hell was that woman up to?
Either way, he wasn't about to let her get away with hindering their progress or whatever she was up to. If her attention was on Omi, Duo figured that she wouldn't be watching him, too. Fingering the row of small replaceable blades he had seen earlier, Duo deftly slipped one off the rack and into his inner sleeve.

He had to just blink at the destruction for second.
That was it. Omi was so out of there. He edged around the two and darted for the door, barely avoiding the falling merchandise. He'd wait for Duo outside.

It was a blatant distraction, and a damn good one. As talented as he was, even he wouldn't have the gall to literally step on a nail (if that part really was part of the act). The attention that he was gathering was quite convenient.
And first and foremost, Duo was an opportunist.
With the attention on the flailing boy, he grabbed a pack of matches and stuffed them into the pocket of his hoodie. He didn't wait to see what became of the boy with the nail in his foot. Instead, Duo hurried outside after Omi, fleeing the chaos the other two had made.
