The Arsenal manager—already over sixty—was brimming with energy.
A light surged in his eyes, a kind of hope he hadn't felt in years!
"A Debut That Shook England! Kai Creates Six Goals in a Rout of Tottenham!"
"First Disaster of the New Premier League Season! A North London Derby for the History Books!"
"Double Hat Trick on Debut! Arsenal's New Gunner King Storms Across England!"
"The Unstoppable Red-and-White Storm! Can Kai Keep His Blazing Form?"
One headline after another swept across the entirety of English football.
The North London Derby—already a hot topic on its own—
Now, after a wild 6–0 slaughter,
The names Arsenal and Kai exploded across all of England!
Six goal involvements in one match!
A hat trick of goals and assists!
After the game, some mischievous London media stitched two photos side by side—
And another front-page headline was born.
The photo on the left: Kai, after his hat trick at the Emirates,
Calling out to the crowd in a commanding pose fit for a king.
The photo on the right:
Tottenham's Korean star Son Heung-Min—also making his Premier League debut—
Wiping away tears as he fled down the players' tunnel.
Asian football fans erupted!
Both were Premier League debutants—
One created six goals and led the crowd in euphoria…
The other was kicked to the point of tears!
In Kai's home country, China, fans were ecstatic.
After this match, and with the full round of Premier League fixtures now complete,
Arsenal fans were thrilled to discover even more exciting news:
After just one round, Kai had climbed straight to the top of both the goalscoring and assist leaderboards!
Leading both charts after Matchday 1!
And Arsenal striker Van Persie?
He was tied with Kai on the scoring chart—both netting three goals.
Arsenal fans were ecstatic!
With the arrival of their new Gunner King,
This season's start had blown past every expectation.
And Kai had made it clear to the world:
He was the one-in-a-generation super prodigy of this era!
With the Premier League season just beginning to unfold…
Kai—the unstoppable red-and-white Gunner King—
Has already established a solid foothold at the top of both the scoring and assists charts in his debut season!
"He's the first ray of light in Arsenal's darkest years!"
Arsenal fans began to hope—earnestly, passionately.
That night, after returning home—
Kai completed his system's post-match settlement.
His first-ever Premier League appearance—
A commanding performance featuring two hat tricks—
Earned him the highest SSS rating.
The quality of his loot chest was automatically upgraded to gold.
A flash of golden light lit up before his eyes—
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for opening a Golden Chest!]
[Reward unlocked: Balanced Dual-Foot Module (Passive Boost)!]
Kai's eyes lit up.
A dual-foot balancing module!
This was an excellent reward for a player like him.
Being weak-footed might not be a huge issue for goalkeepers or defenders—
But for midfielders and forwards, it was absolutely vital!
Football situations shift by the second. Whether shooting or passing,
Reliance on one dominant foot can always create gaps or limitations.
But now—with no weak foot—
Kai could shoot and deliver passes in any direction, at any angle, without blind spots.
After closing the system interface—
His phone suddenly rang.
On his social media app, a familiar name sent Kai a message.
It was James Vaughan!
Like Kai, he had left Crystal Palace during the summer transfer window—
And returned to his former club: Everton.
After the conclusion of Matchday 1 of the Premier League,
Vaughan sent Kai a congratulatory message online.
But moments later, he followed it up with a crying emoji.
Kai paused for a second—
Then quickly understood.
He immediately checked Arsenal's upcoming fixtures.
Three days later, the second round of the Premier League would kick off—
And Arsenal's opponent: Everton!
Kai smiled.
He exchanged a few words with Vaughan, then closed the app.
He made a phone call next.
The one who answered—was an old friend:
Antonio Pintus!
"No, I haven't received a new contract offer... But right now, you don't need me,"
"Your physical condition is already top-notch. I wouldn't be able to offer you much more."
Pintus' voice came through the line, tinged with a hint of regret.
Kai shook his head.
"No, this time… I'm offering you a Level 3 contract!"
Pintus froze on the other end of the line.
The next day.
When a new, unfamiliar figure appeared at Colney Training Centre—
The entire Arsenal squad was stunned!
Even Wenger's eyes lit up instantly.
He had long heard of Pintus' legendary reputation.
Under Kai's arrangement, Pintus was successfully rehired—
In the new season, he would serve as Arsenal's dedicated fitness coach!
"Is this fitness coach really that good?"
Van Persie asked Kai in a low voice.
Kai gave a knowing smile.
"Let's just say… be mentally prepared."
An hour later—
More than half the Arsenal squad staggered to the sidelines—
Clutching trash cans, vomiting their guts out!
Van Persie collapsed flat on the ground, completely drained.
"This training regime... it's torture straight from hell!"
Over the next two days—
Arsenal trained intensely.
With Pintus on board, Colney Training Centre echoed with groans of agony…
But the players' fitness levels were visibly improving.
Wenger and Rice were both shocked.
The club's upper management—stunned and delighted!
When Kai had negotiated his contract with Arsenal earlier,
He had specifically included one key clause:
Director-level authority—
Allowing him to step beyond the role of a player
And systematically manage many aspects of the team.
And now—
Every move Kai made
Was bringing Arsenal huge, immeasurable improvements across the board!
Time flew by quickly.
Soon, it was Matchday 2 of the Premier League.
The entire English football world was once again abuzz with anticipation!
Every media outlet turned their attention once again toward North London.
This round, Arsenal would face—
The most prominent non-Big Six powerhouse in the Premier League:
Everton!
Arsenal flew out for the away match—
Arriving in Merseyside at Everton's home ground:
Goodison Park!
Dark blue waves rolled through the stands—
Blue flags fluttering across every corner of the stadium.
The powerful chants of Everton's fans filled the air!
These were the die-hard supporters of the Toffees.
In the players' tunnel before the match—
Kai and Vaughan met again after several months.
"My brother! It's been a while!"
Vaughan, gasping in disbelief, rushed up and embraced Kai.
When both teams walked out of the tunnel—
The stadium erupted into a deafening roar!
All eyes fell on the pitch.
This was Kai's second Premier League match leading the Gunners.
And the question on everyone's mind:
Could this record-breaking summer signing, the new king of Arsenal—
Continue his dominant form in the Premier League?
The feverish atmosphere swelled—
Surging across Goodison Park under the night sky.
