Spandam seems to use a mixture of his own political connections (including his father) as well as a determination and willingness to do just about anything to get more power and influence for himself to stay in the game. One would think having his spine broken, his strongest fighters beaten and betrayed by him, and his failure at Enies Lobby despite the buster call and CP-9 would be enough to end his ambitions. It seems he is more resilient then I first gave him credit for. Oh well, that just means we get to see him get his butt kicked again. That is a plus. Regarding CP-9 it seems that they have been active for some time since there are clearly multiple generations if CP-9 agents. They mentioned this generation as being the strongest in their history and Rob Lucci as the most powerful agent they had ever trained. I expect that by now they are well on their way to training a new generation of them and we may see them make an appearance at some point. CP-0 both from observations and from the link seem to have a lot of fingers in a lot of pies.
