The story is loosely based on the Itachi Pursuit Arc, and seems to take place shortly after its beginning. Naruto's half of the story is more original to the game, and revolves around a small squad of Konohagakure ninja attempting to stop Kuroma, one of the last members of the ancient Dragon Guardians, from unleashing and taking the power of the Genryū, five powerful dragons originally sealed in Mount Koryu, for revenge.
To do so, Naruto must slay each Genryū with the ancient Dragon Blade, given to him by Kuroma's younger sister, Akari. For Sasuke's half of the story, on the other hand, he has already formed Hebi by the time the story begins, in order to hunt down and kill Itachi. However, his efforts are hindered by Akatsuki's attempts to capture the Genryu that Kuroma has summoned for their own purposes. Throughout the story, the player either plays as Naruto or Sasuke along their journey, utilizing their respective blades and team members' abilities to fight through various levels.
Almost all characters have scrolls attached to their new clothing. In terms of game play, these scrolls are used to perform jutsu of an elemental nature that is not natural to the user, or to enhance the power of jutsu that the user already knows. For instance; Naruto can use Earth Release, Water Release, Fire Release, and Lightning Release, all of which are not of his elemental nature. The armour that the characters don is to protect their chakra system from the environment of Mount Koryu, which normally has the mysterious effect of rendering people unable to use their chakra and fight.
