Homura, the Watchdog of the Tsukasa Empire
Her real name is Momiji Homura, and she is a member of the Tsukasa Empire, monitoring the activities of the Kingdom of Science. Homura's movements are difficult to follow, even for Kohaku, and she astonishes the villagers of the Kingdom of Science, who are unfamiliar with gymnastics. Although she is a member of the Tsukasa Empire, she worships Hyougetsu and acts under his orders. She is adept at using props and is very dexterous, performing her duties like a kunoichi.
Homura never lets her guard down, but...
Homura is constantly monitoring Senku and his friends' movements and never lets her guard down. Senku even brings her some cotton candy with a note attached. While it's forbidden to eat gifts from the enemy, Homura, who doesn't believe Senku is inherently evil, enjoys the sweet treat for the first time in a while. If she hasn't eaten sweets in years, even cotton candy must be quite a stimulant.
Hyoga, Tsukasa's Right-Hand Man
A master spearman who practices the Owari Kanryu style of spearmanship. His real name is unknown. His overwhelming fighting prowess led him to become the No. 2 in the Tsukasa Empire shortly after his return. He singlehandedly tormented the Kingdom of Science when he attacked Ishigami Village using a special weapon called a yari. He has Homura as his subordinate, and is a cold-hearted and cruel man with no feelings for anyone other than Tsukasa. He is no match for Tsukasa, the strongest primate, and their interests align, so they work together. However, he secretly plans to defeat Tsukasa if the chance arises.
Nikki, Taiju and his friends' watchdog
Nikki, a member of the Tsukasa Empire who watches over Taiju and Maki, is known for her physique. Enlisted in the judo club, Nikki practiced every day until she was completely worn out.

After joining the team, she trains Phantom in his imitation and helps recruit people from the Tsukasa Empire.
Phantom's ultra-Spartan training...
A die-hard Lillian fan, Nikki supports Senku and his friends' strategy, but isn't convinced by Phantom's imitation. A lover of the real thing, a half-hearted imitation is unacceptable. Phantom decides to undergo Nikki's strict training... Thanks to the intensive training, Phantom's imitation skills have definitely improved.

Hyou's actions, even as he cornered Chrome and the other shock troops, were unusual even for the Tsukasa Empire. He captured Chrome alive to extract information, spread false information to Tsukasa, and even provided Chrome with batteries, suggesting he's not a complete enemy.
