"Hello, mister! I'm Luo Uchiha, Orochimaru-sensei's student. I'm here on behalf of my teacher to discuss business with you!"
A Luo took a few steps forward, approaching Deva Path Pain as he greeted him with a smile.
"Mm, hello..."
Pain looked down at the child before him. After returning the greeting, he had no idea what else to say.
Orochimaru had always been a gloomy sort. How had he ended up teaching a disciple who grinned foolishly the moment they met?
They had always assumed that this little Uchiha, supposedly snatched away by Orochimaru, would become another Orochimaru if nothing else—or at least turn out like Itachi Uchiha.
"Feels like I'm being disliked. Then I'll skip the nonsense, mister. Please have the person handling this business deal come out. Once we've discussed the proper matters, I'd like to try Amegakure's food too. Kisame told me all about it on the way here. He said I should eat plenty before going home..."
A Luo blinked innocently, then turned to look at Kakuzu, who was standing just outside the door.
For business talks, naturally, he had to speak to the person in charge of making money.

"Come with me. What do you want to eat? I'll take you to get food first."
Kakuzu stepped out after A Luo had greeted him, clearly in a good mood as he motioned for A Luo to follow.
It was not just about discussing business. He also wanted to learn exactly how to turn all sorts
