Shibi Aburame

, called "Gen Aburame" in the English Naruto Trading Card Game (Also in the official Naruto Character Profile book episodes 38- 80), is the father of Shino Aburame. The second databook says that he is "a self-possessed figure, the pride of Aburame," suggesting that he may be the leader of the Aburame clan.

Personality
He is just as stoic (if not even more so) than his son Shino. He may be just as smart.

Chunin Exams
During the invasion of Konoha he uses his bugs to draw out poison from his son's body. It is unknown what the gourd on his back is for, but it is assumed that it is for holding more kikaichu insects. Following the invasion, he was also among the many shinobi present at the Third Hokage's funeral.

Filler arc
During a filler episode in which Shino, Hinata, and Naruto run into Kamizuru clan members, it is brought up that at some unknown time long ago Shibi along with the rest of the clan fought the Kamizuru clan from the Earth Country and had won.

Invasion of Pain
Shibi makes his second appearance in Part II during the Invasion of Pain arc, where he is seen facing off with Akatsuki member Konan alongside his son and two other Aburame clan members.

Abilities
Just like the rest of the Aburame, Shibi uses insects that feed off of his chakra. In return the insects do and attack as commanded by the host. Shibi can use them to drain someone's chakra or as a replacement such as a Bug Clone Technique. He can also use them for a number of defensive uses like Bug Wall Technique and Bug Jar Technique.
