Aburame Clan

The Aburame Clan is one of the four noble clans of Konoha. They are masters of insects and live their lives beside them. Each member of the clan is assigned to insects, which they use in combat as Ninja.

Upon birth, the members of this clan are offered to insects. These insects reside in their body, acting as a nest and form a symbiotic relationship with the host.

The insects enter and leave the body of the Clan members through the pores in their body. They have complete control over these insects and they help the user out in exchange for being their nest.

Founding and History of the Aburame Clan

Not much is known about the Anurame Clan’s founding or history, but they were members of the Hidden Leaf Village even before Naruto’s timeline. Shino Aburamay, one of Naruto’s peers, would form a close relation with him and Hinata Hyuga.

The Aburame Clan has incredible control over the insects that they control. They use these insects not just offensively, but also defensively. There are many techniques which are exclusive to this clan thanks to their mastery over insects.

The members of the Aburame Clan have increased resistance to Genjutsu. This is because their bugs are unaffected by Genjutu and they can awaken the host of their body after detecting a Genjutsu.

In the current generation, Shino Aburame is a teacher at the academy. He is a veteran from the Fourth Great Ninja War and taught Naruto Uzumaki’s son, Boruto Uzumaki while he was in the academy.

The Aburame Clan although they don’t use many Ninjutsu, thanks to their skills in controlling bugs, are feared Ninja while in battle. This is how they earned the position amongst the four noble clans.
