| Suigetsu's prowess in the affinity of water regarding control, has never been deeply explored/explained, though from the subtle hints littered throughout the manga, we can easily infer that Suigetsu is quite prominent in suiton usage/control; surpassed only by users such as: Tobirama, and Kisame; while being equal to Gengetsu, and Mei. Though this is only on the premise of power. Control Suigetsu's mastery of suiton is highly underrated/overlooked; Suigetsu has been shown to manipulate the water from inside of his body, as well out. The former in such a way, that he was capable of balancing the water levels within his body, while manipulating an amassed amount into a single limb; substantially increasing his strength. Another testament to Suigetsu's mastery over the liquid element, is that he's capable of not only liquefying his bodies composition, but hardening it as well.

Focusing on the hardening portion that's been underlined in the databook scan. Suigetsu, is capable of hardening water in his manipulation, this is further proven by his ability to compress the water molecules within his body to enlarge/strengthen his limbs. Why is this important? Because it shows us that Suigetsu is capable of increasing the density of water substantially; which explains why he was capable of pushing back Gyūki, pressuring him to use a point-blank Bijūdama.

In addition, Suigetsu has also been shown to control water he's previously had contact with, as seen when Jūgo violently rushed him, dispersing his water composition, but Suigetsu nigh instantly reformed. During reformation, Suigetsu manipulated the parting water to engulf Jūgo, asphyxiating him nigh instantly/shy of a few seconds.

So far its been shown, that Suigetsu is capable of hardening water's properties through compressing the liquid's molecules, and being able to manipulate any water he's in contact with. The final tribute regarding his mastery over water is the capability to amass a large construct against Kirābī again nigh instantly, as the exclamation marks indicate: Kirābī didn't expect/couldn't react to Suigetsu's initial assault, and Suigetsu's execution speed pertaining to the amassing of the abundance of water is incredibly fast.

Suigetsu was capable of manipulating a construct of water slightly less than half the size of Gyūki instantly (or close to instant, as neither Gyūki, or Taka could perceive Suigetsu's presence). This signifies that not only can Suigetsu manipulate water into any shape/form he wishes (i.e. if he wanted to make a water dragon/hydra/etc. he'd be able to) without needing to fuse with it. But that he can do it at an amazing pace as well. The one, and only reason Suigetsu fused with his amassed construct, was to protect Sasuke & co. from Gyūki killing them. If that weren't the case, Suigetsu very well, could've used the water terrain to create sole constructs, and will them to assault his target. What even further makes this an incredible feat, is the fact it took no hand seals to perform. Suigetsu is capable of amassing nearly-half the size of Bijū constructs nigh instantly, without performing any hand seals; clearly signifying mastery of the respective element. TL;DR Suigetsu's mastery of control regarding the suiton element allows Suigetsu to amass constructs of water hard/large enough to push back even Bijū. As well, not needing to directly fuse with the construct, merely initiating contact once, to be able to control, and manipulate the body of water; hand seals not being a requirement for execution. |
