Vinsmoke Yonji

"Winch Green" Vinsmoke Yonji is a member of the Vinsmoke Family, making him both a prince of the Germa Kingdom and a commander in its military arm, Germa 66. He is Sanji's and Reiju's younger brother.

Appearance
As noted by the Straw Hats, Yonji heavily resembles his brother Sanji; he has almost identical facial features, including the curly eyebrows common to the Vinsmoke siblings. However, his hair is slicked back into a cowlick, his eyebrows curl in the inverse direction (both face the left side of his face), and he lacks facial hair.

Yonji wears all dark clothing, with his shirt bearing the number "66" and his hooded cloak bearing the number "4". He wears a striped belt with the Germa 66 Jolly Roger as a belt buckle, metal gloves, and sunglasses and earphones on the top of his head.

Personality
As Nami observed, Yonji, like his older brother Sanji, exhibits some lecherous qualities. He is immediately struck by Nami's beauty, and is seen ogling Nami's bounty poster when Germa 66 depart from their brief meeting with the Straw Hats.

In all other respects, however, Yonji is very different from Sanji. He has been described as callous and stingy, refusing to help a dying Luffy and challenging the Straw Hats to plunder the Germa 66 ship for the cure for Luffy's condition. His elder sister, Reiju, claimed that he lacked all humanity. He is also proud, getting angry at Reiju when she humiliated him in front of the Straw Hats.

Yonji is also very mindful of his family's affairs, deciding to not get involved with the Straw Hats in order to ensure that Sanji's wedding would not be jeopardized.

Abilities and Powers
Being part of the Vinsmoke Family, Yonji possesses political power over the Germa Kingdom, as well the World Government. Unlike the members of most royal families, he (as well as his father and siblings) are also the commanders of their kingdom's military, directly leading their forces in combat and other activities.

Yonji's father, Vinsmoke Jajji, claimed that he was a formidable fighter. However, after a hostile encounter with his older brother Sanji, it is implied that his strength is less than Sanji's.

He possesses some degree of durability, as he appeared largely unharmed by his sister Reiju's kick despite her using enough force to send him flying several meters away. He also has quick reaction speed, as he was able to put up a defense against Reiju's unexpected kick.

Equipment
Being from the technologically advanced Vinsmoke Family, Yonji possesses high-tech equipment. He possesses shoes that allow him to levitate in midair.

Past
During their childhood, Yonji and his brothers bullied Sanji for serving food to those they considered to be rats.

Totland Arc
Yonji first encountered Luffy's Sanji Retrieval Team right after they entered Big Mom's waters.

Luffy's group mistook him for Sanji until Yonji revealed otherwise. Once he saw Nami, he became love-struck. Seeing that the Thousand Sunny was not the ship Sanji was on, Yonji was about to leave. Chopper called out to him, still calling him Sanji, much to Yonji's annoyance. Chopper begged for an antidote to Luffy's poisoning, but Yonji taunted the group to try to take it by force. His sister, Reiju, appeared and kicked Yonji for his rudeness. After Reiju cured Luffy of his condition, Yonji and Reiju left the Sanji retrieval team alone without making a scene. They also decided to pretend that they never saw the Straw Hats to prevent Sanji's marriage from being called off. He returned to his ship, eyeballing Nami's wanted poster.

At some point upon arriving at Whole Cake Island, Yonji reunited with Sanji. The two had a hostile encounter with Yonji trying to force Sanji to comply. Sanji then overpowered Yonji, breaking his face in the process. While getting his face treated, Yonji expressed his betterment over this defeat.
