Why do they? I haven't researched this too much but read my query.

You connect with every node with the IP protocol plus a port. Why do we count that as a different protocol? If it had its own shouldn't the nodes create their own "IP addresses"? But then wouldn't it work with internet access but with its own "internet".

Confused...  Huh Lips sealed

your question is not clear.
the IP address is assigned to you by your ISP, you can't set it yourself. and bitcoin protocol has a section on P2P protocol which defines the communication protocol that is used by bitcoin nodes that defines the messages, handshake process, and things like that.
