Nine is a multinational conglomerate with subsidiaries active in a variety of industries from the 1970s to current day. Nine has influence in the production and sale of cosmetics, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, industrial machine production, consumer products, health foods, the transportation industry and tourism. Nine's large array of subsidiaries was typical for large-scale corporations, though it was purposely built to cover up illegal activities.
Soon after the opening of its pharmaceutical subsidiary, Nine Pharmaceuticals, Nine began developing biological weaponry for militaries across the world, such as the Weapon X program, Red Room, and Project Cutthroat. Nine Pharmaceuticals was able to cover this by researching vaccines for viruses. Nine's other industries, such as the tourism firm, the Mutant Express Line Company, earned revenue from transporting passengers across the Atlantic as a front for the transporting viral weapon samples from West Africa, while Nine Industries was responsible for the development of mutant weaponry.
Nine's true goal is not, in fact, a capitalistic urge for monopolization of a lucrative industry, but eugenics. This fact was only known to corporate executives, or rather Squad Nine, who shared the belief that their principle objective was the funding of the Squad IX Project, which is to birth a new race of virally-enhanced and well-educated mutants who will advance civilization for generations to come.
Squad Nine
 Saiten is the profound founder of Nine and Squad Nine, more often than not, he is described as "twisted" by a large number of people, implies that Saiten grew to disdain the fragility of human life and how it affected those still living, which led him to desire immortality. To that end, the primary purpose of Saiten's human experimentation and human puppet collection is to test what modifications the body can endure and harness a subject's unique abilities for himself. Once accomplishing this goal, Saiten had hoped to achieve his goal to learn all the secrets in the world and have his strings on them, which would normally take many lifetimes to obtain. He uses Squad IX Project as his first step to expanding his collection and genetic knowledge to the globe.
