NESTS

NESTS (ネスツ) was a secret syndicate that used the King of Fighter 99-2001 tournaments to carry out their plans for world domination. Their ultimate plan was to collect fighters' battle data in the tournament and defeat them by using another team or one of their agents. Once the world was ridden of its only protectors, the cartel would then conquer it, using the data obtained to make their army of unstoppable fighters.

They possessed the ability to create super-powered humans, space ships and satellites, and thousands of Kyo clones around the globe. Their scientific advancements shocked the globe, causing former agents to be labeled as terrorists and targets for scientific research. The cartel ended with Igniz's death though Diana and Foxy have since been working to restore it.
