At birth, members of this clan are offered to a special breed of insects such as [[kikaichū]] as a nest, residing just under their host's skin. These insects will then live in symbiosis with their host.<section end=summary /> == Overview == [[File:Shino's hijutsu.png|thumb|left|Shino using his bugs in an offensive attack.]] The clan members may also carry additional insects in jars or gourds with them on missions. The insects can leave and enter their host's body through various pores. They feed on chakra as a food source, making them quite deadly. The relationship between the shinobi and the insects is mutually beneficial. The host grants the insects shelter and allows them to feed off their chakra, their body becoming a living hive of tens of thousands of these insects, and in return the insects do the user's bidding, allowing the shinobi to perform [[Parasitic Destruction Insect Technique|ninjutsu-like techniques]] without the use of hand seals or chakra conversion. A major defining trait of the Aburame clan is that all of its known members' eyes are obscured usually by glasses, as well as they wear clothing that usually cover up most of their body. [[File:Torune body bugs.png|thumb|Torune's unique insects covering his body.]] A female insect can be left on a target, which then can be tracked by smell by the male insect, or scout insects can be sent out and return to tell the host information about the area. For this reason, Aburame clan members are experts in espionage; they can communicate with the insects, and the insects specialise in stealth because they make no noise or motion during combat. In addition to utilising insects in battle, the Aburame clan also studies insects. In the anime it was shown that they were rivals of the [[Kamizuru]], a clan of bee users, until they defeated them in battle. Even though their insect-related techniques are known only amongst the clan, a select few possess a [[Nano-Sized, Venomous Insects|special type of insect]] that is rare even among the clan's members. To date, only [[Shikuro]] and [[Torune]] are known to possess it. [[File:Muta comm worm.png|thumb|left|Muta communicating with an insect.]] It has also been shown that they possess the ability to communicate with other bugs and insects, as seen when Shino used what looked like a bee to gather information for him during the Chūnin Exams,<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 41, page 14</ref> and later when Muta asked some worms to investigate what was happening below ground during a reconnaissance mission.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 515, page 6</ref> {{-}} == Other Notable Clan Members == * During Pain's invasion, an unnamed member of the clan accompanied [[Shibi]] along with [[Muta]] and [[Shino]] to confront [[Konan]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 427, page 14</ref> * During the [[Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha]], an Aburame was seen alongside Hiruzen and his forces driving the [[Nine-Tails]] out of the village.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 503, page 7</ref> * During the [[Fourth Shinobi World War]], a group of Aburame clan members used the [[Insect Jamming Technique]] in conjuction with the [[Hiding in Mist Technique]] used by [[Kirigakure]] shinobi to obscure the vision of [[Tobi]] and [[Madara Uchiha]] and prevent them from sensing the [[Allied Shinobi Forces]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 611, page 14</ref> == Trivia == * {{Translation|''"Aburame"''|油女}} means ''"oil woman"''. It also may be a variation of "Aburamushi" (油虫), which means "cockroach". == References == <references/> [[de:Aburame-Clan]] [[es:Clan Aburame]] [[ru:Клан Абураме]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
