There has been no solicitation, or any mention that I know of, for a volume 4. If there ever is a volume 4 it will be released at least 15 months after volume 3.

I bought the singles for the first three volumes and enjoyed them enough that I decided to continue reading at least through the "Rescue" story arc, which is what I have seen of the anime so far. I decided to get the omnibus editions after that because they are cheaper (I have ordered, but not yet received, the second and third omnibus editions). Now I guess that I will have to switch back to the singles starting with volume 10.

For now I am going to assume that Viz will not continue the omnibus editions, and even if they did continue I do not want to wait 6 months or more to continue the story.
But it would still be nice to know what they are going to do. I wonder how many times that has been said.
Maybe an answer:

When I asked about naruto they said they would end at three volumes. it was promotional. It's mainly to get someone hooked on them for cheap, and then switch to more expensive singles (he got it from Twitter, but doesn't link to it)
