Background
Kingpin rose through the gangs using his strength, fighting ability and intelligence. By the time Wu Chen considered cleaning up Hell’s Kitchen, Kingpin’s gang held sway there, and Kingpin had nearly become mayor of New York. His stronghold, Fisk Tower, stood on the edge of Hell’s Kitchen 12 27 33.
After footage showed Minato Namikaze defeating his thugs, Kingpin ordered Bullseye to recruit Minato or kill him if he refused. Before Bullseye could leave, the Masked Man appeared in Kingpin’s office 27 28.
Appearance
Kingpin is bald and massive, with an imposing, fierce face. Although he looks like an enormous fat man, his bulk is largely muscle 12 27.
- Height and weight: Approximately two meters tall and over 200 kilograms 12 27.
- Clothing: A custom-made white suit 27.
- Markings: A modified Caged Bird Seal on his forehead after joining the Akatsuki 34 37.
Personality
Kingpin is meticulous, intelligent and fiercely protective of his reputation. He rules through intimidation, crushing the weak while offering powerful opponents a choice between submission and destruction. Nevertheless, he can show caution when confronted with an unfamiliar threat, as he did when the Masked Man appeared 12 28 30.
He values power enough to trade his independence for a chance to grow stronger. After initially submitting under duress, he became increasingly respectful of the Masked Man as chakra training showed him both his own potential and what he believed was the gap between their abilities 33 48.

Story Role
Subjugation and recruitment
The Masked Man defeated Kingpin’s four lieutenants, then used Sharingan Genjutsu to control Kingpin after his cane passed through the intruder’s body. While controlled, Kingpin presented the Masked Man as his master and defeated the four villains in a fight arranged in the Kamui Dimension 29 30 31 32.
Wu Chen released the Genjutsu and offered Kingpin chakra and Ninjutsu in exchange for submission. Kingpin accepted, after which Wu Chen placed the modified Caged Bird Seal on him and made him an associate member of the Akatsuki 33 34.
Search for the Nine-Tails
The Masked Man assigned Kingpin and his allies to find the Nine-Tails’ sealing location in New York. Kingpin sent the four villains and his gang to search while he cultivated chakra. Their activity eventually attracted S.H.I.E.L.D.’s attention 37 38 43.
Kingpin later reported that none of the Detection Crystals had reacted. The Masked Man gave him three more days to find the location 48 49.
Confrontation at Fisk Tower
Minato, Natasha and Coulson investigated Kingpin’s gang and fought their way into Fisk Tower. Kingpin emerged to confront them but hesitated upon recognizing Minato; he relaxed when the Masked Man appeared behind him 50.
