The recommended altitude for a tandem skydive was usually around three to four thousand meters, with roughly thirty to fifty seconds needed to reach the ground.
Using the recoil from kicking his Nen Beast, Dio finally just managed to reach Bokushin, who had lost her parachute.
Their current altitude was-five thousand meters.
There was no parachute.
Dio rolled over to face the sky and held Bokushin protectively against his chest. The worst-case scenario now was plunging straight into the sea without protection.
The reason he anticipated that was simple.

His Nen Beast could fly, true, but its lousy flying speed had held him back more than once.
That had been the case in Pati City, and it was the case now.
Once his current business was finished, improving Misty's flying speed absolutely had to go on the agenda-
In fact, he had been thinking about it all along. But with one thing after another keeping him busy, he could barely find any free time to focus on developing his ability, leaving him no choice but to maintain the status quo for now.
Dio silently planned to develop his [Third Weather Phenomenon] with [Speed] as its focus once the Hunter Exam was over!

Actually, for Dio as he was now, this altitude was nothing to fear even if he really did slam into the ground with his body.
Bokushin would probably have a few
