Number Two: Protective Brothers

Fun Fact: I made this story around the knock knock joke.

"Ichiji, Ichiji." Sanji tugged on his elder brothers coat.

The blonde haired boy with his hair over his left eye looked to his youngest brother Sanji.

"What is it Sanji?" Ichiji asked.

"Knock knock."

Ichiji sighed, "Sanj-"

"Come on Ichiji, just please."

"Who's there."

"Olive."

"Olive who?"

"Olive you."

Sanji smiled as Ichiji cracked a smile and ruffled his hair. That was the first and last time he'd ever had Sanji tell him he loved him. Ichiji and Niiji sat in a hotel room. Niiji going on about how he met some girl and Ichiji stared out the window sitting against his bed.

"Olive you." Sanji's sweet voice rang in his head.

"Ichiji. Are you okay?" Niiji asked.

Ichiji turned to his twin brother. They weren't exactly identical, Niiji had more facial hair and his hair was out of his face.

"I'm fine." Ichiji replied looking back out the window.

"What is it? Come on you can tell me."

Niiji flopped down on the bed next to him.

"It's nothing."

"Your thinking about little bro again aren't cha? Don't worry about him. He's with those people who've taken good care of him."

"I know."

"Come on Ichiji you can tell your brother."

"Sanji told me he loved me once, in a knock knock joke."

Niiji chuckled rolling over on his back, "You miss him too huh?"

Ichiji hummed in agreement, Niiji sat up.

"Let's go see him. Come on Ichiji."

"Niiji, we can't. How do you know that he'd want to see us?"

Niiji flopped back down, "I just wanted to cheer you up."

Ichiji sighed crossing his arms, "Let's just get to sleep."

Niiji hopped off Ichiji's bed and they went to sleep. The next morning Ichiji and Niiji went out into town. Buying some breakfast and going out into the town. A hand was placed on Ichiji's shoulder having him turn to see a green haired man. He blinked looking at the two curled eyebrowed men.

"Sorry, thought you were someone else." He said.
Ichiji and Niiji exchanged looks.

"You shitty officer I told you to stay by the apple cart."

"Hey cook, these two guys have the same stupid eyebrows like you do."

Niiji and Ichiji turned to Sanji standing holding a bag of fresh food. The green haired man took Sanji's side and when the bag of produce slipped from Sanji's hands Zoro caught it.

"Sanji do you know them?" Zoro asked.

"Th-there my brothers."

Niiji was first to snap out of it and glomped onto Sanji holding him tight. Sanji gasped as Niiji hugged him tighter.

"Can't." Sanji panted, "Breathe."

"Niiji." Ichiji said.

He dropped Sanji and pinched his cheeks.

"Would you look at that, our little brothers all grown up."

"Stawp wit."

Ichiji stood next to him and brushed back his bangs seeing his asymmetrical eyebrows.

"Yeah, he's our brother alright." Ichiji chuckled.

Zoro watched as Sanji was tormented by his two elder brothers. Sanji batted away the hands before hiding behind Zoro and rubbed his face.

"Who your supposed to be?" Ichiji asked.

Sanji peaked over Zoros shoulder.

"He's Roronoa Zoro, future worlds greatest officer. And my boyfriend." Sanji huffed.

"Boyfriend?" Niiji gasped.

He grabbed Sanji by the back of his coat and pulled him out from behind Zoro. Then started shaking him and scolding him about women.

"He's a real pervert if that will make you happy." Zoro called.

Niiji stopped and turned to Sanji, then scolded him again about not being an innocent little boy like he was when he was a kid.

"That's Niiji second oldest and I'm Ichiji the eldest." Ichiji said taking Zoro's side.

"Your brother is a fine cook." Zoro said.

"Cook?"

Zoro nodded, as they watched Niiji continue scolding Sanji.

"Sanji is a cook, works at a restaurant in town."
Sanji escaped from Niiji's grip and hid behind Ichiji and Zoro.

"Hey cook why don't we have your brothers over for dinner so you guys can catch up." Zoro asked looking over his shoulder.

"You'd do that for me?"

Zoro shrugged, "There are your family."

Niiji smiled wrapping an arm around Zoro's shoulders.

"I approve of you strange haired man." Niiji chuckled.

"I guess we can show you the way home." Sanji said.

And they followed Sanji to their little home in a little neighborhood. Sanji gasped seeing a little brown haired boy sitting on the porch asleep.

"I forgot we were babysitting Chopper for Robin-chan and Franky." Sanji said.

"Don't worry cook I'll take care of him while you catch up with your brothers." Zoro said.

Zoro handed Sanji the bags while he picked up Chopper and took him inside. Sanji smiled to himself heading inside with his brothers. Ichiji and Niiji walked around the house admiring all the pictures of Sanji and the group of friends he had.

"Ichiji come here." Niiji called.

Ichiji set down the picture and went to find Niiji holding a picture of some older man and little Sanji. Niiji took the picture and looked at the one legged man with a braided mustache.

"That's Owner Zeff, he taught me how to be a cook and I co-own a restaurant with him. He saved my life when I was on the verge of starvation. When I was a kid he took me in and we couch jumped before we got on our feet and were handed down a restaurant." Sanji explained.

"This man, took care of you?" Ichiji asked.

Sanji nodded when Zoro walked down the stairs and yawned a jaw breaking yawn.

"So where does he fit in?" Ichiji asked.

"About two years ago Zoro and a couple of our friends came to our restaurant and Luffy-"

Sanji pursed his lips leaving the room for a moment. He came back a moment later with a picture frame. Sanji handed it to his brothers. 

"That was taken after I became there friend. But Luffy is the one with the straw hat. Well Luffy had a commotion and owner Zeff had to step in then there was a big fight at the restaurant. It was pretty. Interesting." Sanji said.

They looked to Zoro Luffy and Sanji all smiling with arms wrapped around each other.

"Looks like your in good hands little brother." Niiji chuckled.

Sanji smiled, "I am."

Soon enough Sanji started dinner while Zoro sat at the dinning room table. Both of Sanji's brothers sat and interrogated him.

"State your age and full name." Niiji growled.

"I'm 21 and my name is Roronoa Zoro." Zoro sighed.

"Who do you work for and what occupation do you have?" Ichiji asked.

"I work for the Sunny police department and I am head chief."

Chopper hopped down the stairs and hid in front of the wall looking at the two brothers.

"Aren't you supposed to be behind the wall?" Niiji asked.

Chopper squeaked hiding behind the wall and peaking out to them.

"It's alright chopper, they mean us no harm." Zoro said.

Chopper stepped out and hid behind Zoros chair.

"These are Sanji's brothers. Ichiji and Niiji."

"Zoro. Can I go play now?" Chopper whispered.

"Go on ahead, Sanji is starting dinner."

Niiji and Ichiji looked to each other as the rough looking man talked to a sweet innocent child. Ichiji got up and went into the kitchen. Sanji stood cooking away while Ichiji leaned against the doorframe.

"Sanji."

Sanji stopped and turned to his brother, "Yeah?"

"Niiji and I have to go. I won't tell dad we saw you. But. We'll meet again okay? I can see your in good hands with the green haired swordsman."

"How did you kn-"

"There are swords pinned to the wall, and I know you wouldn't hurt a fly."

Sanji smiled, "Maybe we can catch up again sometime."

Ichiji chuckled backing up into the dinning room, Niiji stood up as they walked into the living room. And with a snap, Ichiji and Niiji disappeared. They sat on a roof not to far and smiled pulling on there masks.

"Seems our little brother is growing up too fast." Ichiji said.

Niiji pulled out his dagger, "Yeah, but. He's better off with them. Let's get this job done."
