If the clan's Secret Jutsu had been successfully passed down, he might have been able to elevate his strength to the Kage level much earlier. Due to the loss of their family's Secret Jutsu, the status of the Yuhi Clan within Konohagakure plummeted sharply, and it was not until the rise of Yuhi Kurenai that the clan's standing recovered somewhat.
However, the current clan rested entirely upon his shoulders alone, and he had to consider its future. Therefore, Yuhi Kurenai was desperately eager to develop a unique set of family Secret Jutsu and would never make it public under any circumstances.
