Plainly, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Z9 having a bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Nikon Z9 will give you more detail with its extra 30 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The younger Z9 is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
