Akira Otoishi’s dreams of being a rock legend crashed and burned years ago. Despite his musical talent and devotion to the role, criminal allegations prevented any interest from important people in the industry. Now Akira drifts from contract to contract as a bodyguard, the only position in the music world that would have him. Having a long record of successful jobs and glowing reviews from artists he’s worked with, Otoishi maintains an edge over his competition with his speed, smarts, and musical expertise that keeps even the wildest and most controversial artists running safe and sound.
But it wasn’t enough.
When a bigwig decides that an artist is getting too big for his britches, or that a reporter is peeling back too much of the industry’s gilded exterior, Akira is given “extra hours”. It started as simple rough-up or beat-down jobs, but when his bosses recognized Akira’s dramatic flair for intimidation and brutal application of punishment, they decided to make him into more than a simple thug. Wearing a custom mask, insulated clothes and an electric current across his knuckles, “Chili Pepper” is sent to protect important figures and silence potential foes. While Chili Pepper doesn’t appear anywhere on Otoishi’s glowing resume, the masked enforcer’s reputation is both well known and well feared in the dark corners of the industry. Akira finally has the fame he obsessed over for years and relishes every moment of it.
