Punk Records

Punk Records is an area in the Labophase of Egghead which stores the brain of Dr. Vegapunk. It acts as a "library" which Vegapunk and his six satellites can remotely connect to, allowing them to share the same brain.

Layout
The exterior of Punk Records resembles a broken egg half facing downwards. Inside the egg is a flat black surface with a light grid pattern and the text "PUNK RECORDS" written on it. A ring composed of blocks is floating around the structure.

Functionality
Due to the ability of the Nomi Nomi no Mi, Vegapunk's brain has grown so large that it occupies a vast amount of storage space. Vegapunk developed Punk Records into a system which allowed him to separate his brain from his body and connect to it with an antenna capable of transmitting brain waves. In addition, Vegapunk's six satellites are each connected to Punk Records and synchronize their knowledge and experiences with it once a day.

Vegapunk's plan is to develop Punk Records into something everyone in the world will be able to access, allowing them share all of the knowledge as well as to update Punk Records with new information themselves; presumably, this would circumvent Egghead's constraints on its hosted technologies that prevents such from existing outside of the realm. However, Jinbe voiced some concerns regarding ideologies that could spawn from this for not everyone may have noble intents with the kind of knowledge that could be disseminated in this manner and nor would they all be driven to accrue knowledge for the sake of such as well as betterment.

Trivia

 * Vegapunk's plan for Punk Records is similar to the real world concept of the Internet, or more specifically, a free online encyclopedia like Wikipedia. Also in science fiction there is a similar concept, the group mind.
