A loser like you ain't got no guts!
As the two left Jou seemed a bit preoccupied with everything that was going in the house, she doesn’t blame him family affairs are always hard and Taki hated seeing families fight. But that seemed like a whole can of worms she couldn’t even begin to unpack.
"Riiight…” the girl would say not believe his assertion for a second. As their conversation continued he would then look to Taki with a degree of astonishment stating that she was going to take over in disbelief.
"Well yeah, ya see Joey…de Okada clan ain’t really a shinobi clan we got shinobi in it but we run it like a business the girl would go on to explain in a bit more further detail, raising a hand in the air as she began her explanation.
"Ya see the head honcho is a civilian my dad and when he dies the business and subsequently da clan gets passed on ta me.” she’d explain, the Okada were certainly a different breed.
"But if I’m bein honest, as much as I'm excited to be the boss I still got too much woik as a shinobi left to do. but my dad says if I can run into battle, then I can run a company." the girl would recall the intensity in her dad's eyes when he made that declaration shortly after she returned from the exams.
"So we struck a deal, I train for three weeks at a time and then I set aside one week a month to come home and help out.” the girl seemed a bit conflicted by it all having to try and juggling potentially running a clan with also working to try and find her uncle on top of training her apprentice.
"It's been an adjusment but hey, I'm Taki Bakudan Okada, I can do anythin!" she'd say putting that famous Okadan bravado on display, she'd then give Jou a bit of a sly look.
"And with you by my side as my top star, I'll be da best dang shinobi promoter kada eva!” she’d say with a sly grin and firm grip of his shoulders, all that pressure was enough to make someone's head pop and somehow Taki was doing her best to bear it all, despite all of the challenges she had too after all everyone in the clan was counting on her.
"So foist things foist…we gotta see if you can hang, so we’re headed to the Okada gym to see about getting you in fightin shape!” the girl would say patting him on the back.
After the two would arrive at the compound in question a large white and orange flag flying high over the tallest building in the compound Okada HQ. As the two made their way through the gates Jou would be met by a sea of blondes all wearing orange and white with a dash of black clearly the Okada had a limited gene pool.
"Joey, welcome to Okada country!” There was a scent of grilled meat in the air it was summertime after all and the Okada liked to party.
"Bakudan or should I say Brokudan!” one of the men would say, as a term of endearment with a distinct twang in his voice something he would notice is common amongst all Okada's.
"Wassup!” Taki would shout back. One of the first things Jou might notice was that the architecture seemed a bit different from most of the other more traditionally built buildings in the compound made from concrete rather than simple stone with a mixture of classic and Okadan architecture.
As they made their way through the compound they’d come across a large building that was rather slender in height but wide nonetheless, as they walk by there would be a group of muscle bound men and women who were all on the taller side walking out of the gym and meanwhile some poor unfortunate sap would be seen getting kicked out of the gym by a tall blonde who might look familiar to Jou the Original Bakudan and Taki’s aunt Riku Okada,
"You know the rules NO UNAUTHORIZED NINJUTSU!” she’d shout the young chunin would look to her in protest.
"But I…” "No butts, ya broke the rules now pack yer bags! Dontcha come back now ya here! This gym is a sacred place and I can’t have ya putting my boys in danger with your recklessness.” make no mistake about it, that was a civilian with no access to chakra whatsoever dressing down a shinobi. With his dreams crushed and his pride hurt he’d march his way out of the gym. Taki would gawk as he left and would then lean in to whisper to Joey.
"Uhh yeah, forgot to mention if you don't wanna end up like dat guy, keep ninjutsu out o ya repertoire a'ight?” the girl would say, remembering how touchy and temperamental the woman got when discussing such matters. "Auntie’s got a bit of a policy.”
Riku commanded respect from her gym and clearly was just as rough and tumble as her on screen persona. It was a rather odd rule but one that no one in the family could manage to get her to break at least not completely. She didn’t mind occasional usage of it but nothing that would cause anything earth shattering to happen. She had an understanding of how it worked but felt that to use it was disrespectful to others and to her.
"The nerve of that boy…blazing entry not in my gym ya don’t.” she’d mutter under her breath.
"Hey auntie, ya alright?” the girl would call out.
"I’m fine darlin, just taking out the trash.” As the two approached the tall woman, she’d take note of Jou.
"You must be Joey, Taki’s told me you’d be coming handsome little fella.” Taki would place her arms around his shoulder, pointing to him with a teasing look in the eye.
"Yeah I hear she’s got Adachi awl swoonin.” she’d joke her gaze shifting down to a bit to lightly pester her friend.
"Does he now…? Well then we found his gimmick "The lady killer.” she’d joke.
"C’mon inside class just ended but the next one’ll be startin up in a little if’n ya need too you can go ahead and get warmed up.” she’d say heading back into her office. Upon entering inside the first thing you’d see is a small office with a glass window almost like a ticket counter it’s where Riku works and also allows her to keep her eyes on the gym at all times. Beside it, is a small sitting area with a few tables more than likely where the trainees eat whatever lunches they have or just a spot to take a break. In the back there’s two shower rooms and beside em are the restrooms.
To the left of the entrance are a series of state of the art exercise machines to help keep performers in tip top shape and in the center straight ahead is a wrestling ring where performers can practice their craft with a little bit of coaching of course.
"Well ain’t it great?” the interior smelled like rubbing alcohol and success but probably just the alcohol but despite it’s function it looked incredibly pristine each of these machines looking like they’ve been polished to perfection on the daily it’s clear the Okada and Riku especially take great pride in the upkeep of the gym.

Due to the coarse strength of a gorilla's skin Taki is able to withstand a good amount of extra punishment allowing her to be able to withstand blows from most enemies that most shinobi wouldn't be able to normally withstand. As such blows from strong fighters are reduced by a considerable amount and when struck feel like colliding with a considerably immovable force.
