Encountered

Downtown: Parking Garage: Mushroom Forest of the Garage (with fishing pole, High Test and Swimming Worm Bait)

On Winning

If you have Channeling Matsuo active:

You tear one mandible loose of the worm as the other shatters in your hand like the blades used by the Demon Slayer.

You've learned a new Skill: Swordbreaker

If you don't have Channeling Matsuo active, unlocks Rhythm of the Garage encounter which gives Rapid Molting skill.

Either way, winning against the White Worm locks out this encounter for the rest of the run.
