I have been thinking that I will tell but I forgot all time. After partition, I flashed stock Rom by flasher. But when I boot into software I saw that the storage is same as old ones. But I have modified the partitions. In some time later I backed up system by TWRP. When I restore the back up files, I saw that the system storage is as my partition. Other storage like data and internal storage are same as my partitions. Only this happens for system partitions.

Some Questions

1. Our device has 100MB cache partition. It is almost free all time ( when I check it only some MBs were used only). I want to use some of it's size to other partition, like I want to reduce cache partition's size so I can use it in another partitions.
Will it effect the phone?
2. Do you have any way to disable internal storage? I mean p21?

Hoping reply will come soon.

It's better to let cache bigger than 50m
To disable internal, you can edit fstab file in boot.img easily and remove its mount line
