Nami's Final Puzzle Piece
Leo and the others settled down directly in Shimotsuki Village.
Some might ask: after sending out Ace and Enel, wasn't Leo afraid that Smoker and Hina would escape?
In fact, after the two of them escaped last time, Leo and the others had thoroughly interrogated Baru and Hina.
Clearly, both Hina and Smoker were exceptionally skilled at reshaping things, which was related to their Devil Fruit abilities. And those Seastone handcuffs had obviously been manufactured by the Marines themselves, so dealing with them was hardly difficult for the two of them.

Under circumstances like these, one person definitely could not escape alone. But with two people, they could at least help each other untie the ropes, greatly increasing their chances of getting away.
They were in no hurry. They simply watched Leo's group train in silence, waiting to see what tricks this new band could come up with.
