The Aburame Clan (油女一族, Aburame Ichizoku) is one of the four noble clans of Konohagakure.[1] At birth, members of this clan are offered to several special breed of insects as a nest, residing just under their host's skin. These insects will then live in symbiosis with their host from that point on. Because of this, its members are characterised by their use of insects as weapons.
Overview
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 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.
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, Aburame do not limit themselves to using just a single type of insects, in fact a select few used an insect considered rare even among the clan's members known as rinkaichū. To date, only Shikuro and Torune are known to possess it. Another rare insect used by the clan are the kidaichū, an insect which reacts so exponentially to chakra that they grow rapidly in size when exposed to incorrect amounts of it, consuming their victim from the inside out. As noted by Shino, it makes the insects troublesome ones to host in the body.[2]
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.[3]
Utilised Insects
Bikōchū
Main article: Bikōchū
The Bikōchū (微香虫, literally meaning: minute scent insect) is an insect that was once used by the Aburame clan in the great ninja wars. It was becoming an endangered species, however, so they let it live in a special habitat, uninhabited by humans. Two of the female's distinguishing traits are its long nose and its blue eyes, but a giant bug-like creature that looks exactly like it is sometimes confused with the real thing. It also has an incredible sense of smell, stronger than even that of a dog.
Kidaichū
Main article: Kidaichū
The kidaichū (寄大蟲, English TV: Parasitic Giant Beetles, literally meaning: Parasitic Giant Insects) are a species of beetle-like insects that are bred and utilised by select members of the Aburame clan as part of their Parasitic Destruction Insect Technique.
Though initially small in size, if provided with the incorrect amount of chakra, these insects immediately begin to devour the flesh of their host, causing them to undergo rapid growth to ultimately giant proportions.
Kikaichū
Main article: Kikaichū
Kikaichū (寄壊蟲, English TV: Parasitic Insects, literally meaning: Parasitic Destruction Insects) are one of several species of insect used by members of the Aburame clan. They resemble small, flight-capable beetles.
Rinkaichū
Main article: Rinkaichū
Rinkaichū (燐壊虫, literally meaning: Phosphorus Destruction Insect)[4] are a breed of nano-sized, venomous insects (ナノサイズの毒蟲, nanosaizu no dokumushi, English TV: Nano-sized Venomous Beetles) hosted by a select few members of the Aburame clan. These bugs destroy their enemies' cells, causing excruciating pain in the process.[5]
Shōkaichū
Main article: Shōkaichū
The shōkaichū (消壊虫, literally meaning: Neutralising Destruction Insect)[6] are one of several species of insect used by members of the Aburame clan. They resemble worms. They can dig into the ground and locate chakra signatures that they then report to their respective Aburame.[7]
Other Notable Clan Members
- During Pain's invasion, an unnamed member of the clan accompanied Shibi along with Muta and Shino to confront Konan.[8]
- During the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha, an Aburame was seen alongside Hiruzen and his forces driving the Nine-Tails out of the village.[9]
- During the Fourth Shinobi World War, a group of Aburame clan members used the Insect Jamming Technique in conjunction 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.[10]
Trivia
- The name "Aburame" literally means "oil woman" (油女), while it may also be a variation of "Aburamushi" which means "cockroach" (油虫), referring to the clan's use of insects as weapons.
