Vinsmoke Family

The Vinsmoke Family is an infamous family of killers in the Underworld that Sanji hails from. They are in command of the military organization Germa 66.

Members
The family is known to consist of a father and at least three sons, with Sanji being the third. The father is an infamous man throughout the New World.

Influence
Though not much is known about them, the Vinsmoke Family is a family of assassins that seems to lead the 'mythical evil army' (as described by Nami) known as Germa 66. They may possess considerable clout with either the World Government or Marines, as Sanji presumed that his parents were behind the situation where his Wanted Poster was changed from 'Dead or Alive' to 'Only Alive'.

History
Sometime when he was nine years old or younger, Sanji migrated across the Red Line from North Blue to East Blue, a considerable journey, given the geographic circumstances. Sanji had been separated from his family since he was nine years old at the latest. He was on a cruise ship that was attacked by the Cook Pirates and sank in a storm. Sanji and the pirate captain, Zeff, were marooned on an island, where they almost starved to death. After their rescue, Sanji worked under Zeff as they built the Baratie, with Sanji becoming the sous chef. Sanji did not want to explore his past with his family ever again.

Ten years later, he left Baratie to join the Straw Hat Pirates, taking part in their pirate activities and earning the attention of the World Government. When he received his first bounty, there was no photograph of him, so a crude drawing was used instead. When Sanji received his second bounty two years later, it had a picture of his real face, and for some reason he is now only wanted alive.

The leader of the Vinsmoke family, Sanji's father, arranged for him to marry the 35th daughter of the Charlotte Family, Purin. Sanji, shocked that his past was brought up again, believed that his parents were also responsible for him only being wanted alive. With the intention of putting an end to his past, Sanji reluctantly went to the wedding.
