The nine cyborgs band together in order to stop Black Ghost in its' goal of starting the next world war by supplying rich buyers with countless weapons of mass destruction. After the destruction of Black Ghost, the nine cyborgs go on to fight a variety of threats such as mad scientists, supernatural beings and ancient civilizations.
