Ukyo Saionji (西 (さい) 園 (おん) 寺 (じ) 羽 (う) 京 (きょう) , Saionji Ukyō) is a modern-day survivor that was revived by Tsukasa Shishio.

Appearance

Manga

Ukyo is a slim young man with short, blonde hair and blue eyes. He wears an orange cloak, a paper cap, and always carries a bow and quiver on his back.

Personality

He is pacifistic and dislikes needless bloodshed. While he initially joined Tsukasa's empire as he believed it to be the only way of survival and looked away from Tsukasa's breaking of statues (which is the equivalent of murder) he chose to side with Senku and his kingdom of science under the condition not a single life would be lost. When Senku fulfills his promise, Ukyo fully sides with the Kingdom of Science. He is notably intelligent, managing to quickly deduce that the Lillian talking over the telephone was Gen in disguise and managing to keep Senku's allies alive while they were in the Tsukasa Empire without alerting Tsukasa's suspicions. He also prefers to use his archery to corner his opponents rather than outright murder them though may be willing to murder if forced to.

Abilities and Skills

Super Sensitive Hearing

As a result of his long career as a Sonar Technician inside SDF Navy, Ukyo now has extremely sensitive hearing which allows him to locate a target with pinpoint accuracy by sound alone.

Archery skills

He has tremendous skill with archery, managing to shoot arrows at Magma and Chrome that made it look as if he was trying to pursue them, but purposely shooting so they would hit close to their bodies but miss. In addition, he was skilled enough to shoot an arrow to save Chrome from falling in a waterfall. It is unknown whether he learned archery before or after the petrification.

Intelligence

Despite Gen managing to perform a perfect imitation of Lilian's voice, he was able to tell it was Gen simply from deducing that Gen wasn't tired from singing for a long period of time like how the real Lilian (or any other singer) would.

Bilingual   

Ukyo seems to be fluent in both Japanese and English.  He spoke English to Senku using his buried phone in order to conceal their conversation from the others present.
