Sanji is a tall, slender man with light skin and striking blonde hair. Prior to the timeskip, his hair draped over his left eye, later shifting to obscure his right. He favors a black shirt and is seldom seen without a cigarette, his signature swirled eyebrows—curling distinctively leftward—setting him apart from his siblings. Born Vinsmoke Sanji to Germa Kingdom’s ruler, the scientist Vinsmoke Judge, and Queen Sora, he was the sole survivor of genetic experiments to retain human emotions, deemed a failure and imprisoned. His sister Reiju aided his escape, leading to a shipwreck and rescue by "Red Foot" Zeff, a former pirate and Baratie restaurant owner. Under Zeff’s mentorship, Sanji honed both culinary mastery and a kick-centric combat style, prioritizing leg techniques to safeguard his hands for cooking. Joining the Straw Hat Pirates after the Baratie’s clash with Don Krieg, Sanji embodies chivalry, especially toward women, and pursues the mythic All Blue—a sea uniting global marine life. His "Black Leg" fighting style merges devastating kicks with the fiery "Diable Jambe" technique. Training with Emporio Ivankov during the timeskip granted him "Sky Walk," enabling aerial mobility, while a Germa 66 Raid Suit temporarily amplified his abilities until he renounced it to sever familial ties. Renowned for his refined palate and olfactory precision, he recreates intricate dishes and identifies ingredients effortlessly. In a collaborative event, Sanji competes in a food tournament alongside chef Komatsu and martial artist Gohan. Tasked with appeasing a Manpukuhihi—a creature demanding culinary offerings for passage—he showcases his gastronomic ingenuity. Simultaneously, he navigates combat challenges, blending teamwork and martial prowess to triumph.
