Still months away before the fourth of installment of the Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm game franchise hits shelf, publisher Bandai Namco Games recently released a concept artwork featuring the rightful successors (Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke) to the three legendary Sannin as they battle against the Jubi in one of the sequence of the final battle.

Basically a teaser to build up more hype for the release of Ninja Storm 4 via Gematsu, the artwork brings Naruto fans back to the time when Kakashi's Team 7 reunited after rekindling the fire of friendship (although Sasuke would later reveal his hidden agenda) to fight a common sinister enemy, hell-bent to erase the Ninja world from history.

After receiving tutelage from each respective Sannin mentor, Naruto with Gamakichi (frog), Sakura with Katsuyu (snail) and Sasuke with Aoda (snake) demonstrated their ability to summon their beasts to the battlefield, a particular scene that validated their claim to the place of the original legendary Sannins of the Hidden Leaf Villa: Jiraiya, Tsunade, Orochimaru.

Latino Post provided a more detailed description of the artwork which is expected to be one of several teasers to follow before Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 gets released at a later date this year.

"Sakura inherits Katsuyu, Tsunade's healing slug that can bring everyone (including someone chopped in half) from the brink of death. Sasuke, for his great skill, dojutsu and all-around bad temperament was able to inherit Manda, Orochimaru's snake. As for Naruto, his friendship with the Frog summons lets him call on any one from that family, but most importantly Gamabunta, the frog he was able to summon as early as his genin days during the exams," via Latino Post.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 will be playable on PC, XBOX One and Play Station 4.
