"Group Winner Secured in Advance! Arsenal Turns the Group of Death into a One-Sided Bloodbath!"
Following the second Champions League clash against Milan,
the entire European football world erupted into heated debate!
Kai had matched the Champions League single-season goal record in just four rounds—
sending shockwaves through the continent!
Arsenal's 8–0 aggregate demolition of AC Milan,
home and away, stunned football fans across Europe.
No one could have imagined this at the start—
when the Champions League groups were drawn,
this was labeled the Group of Death.
And yet here they were—
with Kai leading the charge, Arsenal had completely steamrolled every defending champion in their path!
Fans of Dortmund and Ajax were starting to panic.
At this rate,
they knew they were next on the chopping block!
Arsenal was charging ahead in the Champions League,
having all but secured top spot in the group.
Dortmund, Milan, Ajax… all left in the dust.
Some fans had even started calculating the table
assuming a guaranteed loss in their rematches against Arsenal.
The whole situation left football supporters across the world speechless.
This season, after Kai's arrival,
an Arsenal side that had gone eight years without a trophy
had transformed overnight into a Champions League juggernaut!
The spotlight now fully turned toward North London—
even Europe's elite clubs, all eyeing the UCL crown,
were forced to pay attention.
No club could sit still in the face of such a dominant Arsenal.
Almost every top team in Europe had begun frantically studying their tactics.
Even tactical master Carlo Ancelotti, who had recently been dismissed by Chelsea and was now at home,
became fully obsessed.
He wrote a 50,000-word tactical essay analyzing Kai's style of play!
And to his surprise,
some of Europe's biggest clubs soon came knocking with job offers
—just for his "football manuscript."
Some teams' managers were absolutely furious,
accusing Ancelotti of being a sly conman.
In their eyes:
"Study Kai? Only a madman would think that's possible!
This guy isn't someone you study—he's a force of nature!"
"Who knows if that 50,000-word report was tactical insight or just a desperate plea for employment…"
After the Milan match,
Arsenal returned to the dressing room for a champagne-soaked celebration.
That night, Kai returned to his villa.
He took a quick glance at the fixture list.
Arsenal still had one final match this month—
the Carabao Cup quarterfinal!
The draw for the next round would be revealed the following evening.
Kai took a shower and headed to his room to run his system settlement.
Gold light shimmered before him!
A dazzling treasure chest floated into view.
Milan Golden Chest?
Kai didn't hesitate—he opened it immediately.
A tingling sensation prickled the back of his skull.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You've opened the Milan Golden Chest!]
[Reward unlocked: Shevchenko's "Nuclear Warhead" module!]
Kai's eyes lit up!
Shevchenko?
A former Ballon d'Or winner, a Milan legend!
And—
a striker, not a midfielder!
This was the first striker module he had ever obtained.
Reading through the description, Kai quickly understood:
The Shevchenko Nuclear Warhead module would drastically enhance
his power, angle, and precision when blasting shots inside the penalty box!
His shooting stat was still far from maxed out.
And even with strong fundamentals,
shots could always be blocked or stray wide under pressure.
But with this new module?
His composure and execution inside the box would now rise sharply.
[Shooting: 80 → 90!]
A huge surge in his shooting attribute!
Previously, his shooting stat had hovered just above 60.
Through consistent training and in-match scoring,
he had managed to break through to 80.
Now, with the Shevchenko module,
he received a full +10 boost!
Kai's eyes sparkled with excitement.
He was one step closer to becoming the ultimate all-rounder.
After their second clash with Milan,
Arsenal pressed ahead with their packed schedule.
They still had one final showdown this month—
the Carabao Cup quarterfinal!
The day after the Milan win,
the draw was held for the next round.
And all of London exploded with frenzy!
Arsenal's opponent in the quarterfinals?
Tottenham Hotspur.
A storm of hype swept the city!
After opening the Premier League season with the North London Derby,
nearly half a season had passed…
And now, Arsenal would meet their bitter rivals once again—
this time on the Carabao Cup stage!
The London press could barely contain their excitement.
This was the matchup every local media outlet had been dreaming of!
The North London Derby was returning,
and this time, it would ignite the quarterfinals!
And with the second league meeting between Arsenal and Spurs still to come later in the season—
this year's Derby was guaranteed to play out at least three times!
Before the match, the media stirred up a frenzy!
"North London Derby returns again — this time in the League Cup!"
"Six-goal humiliation in the season opener! Can Pochettino's team redeem themselves in the League Cup?"
"Top English media predict: This could be the most one-sided North London Derby in eight years."
"The nightmare at White Hart Lane is still fresh! Can Spurs handle an Arsenal led by Kai?"
Pre-match hype swept across English football!
Arsenal fans were fired up!
"Bloody Spurs! We crushed them 6–0 in the Premier League opener and turned White Hart Lane into a library for Spurs fans! This time in the League Cup quarterfinals, our Gunner King is gonna blow their skulls off!"
"I didn't expect Spurs to even reach the League Cup quarterfinals, but this is where it ends! Get ready for another bloodbath!"
"Hope the draw puts the match at the Emirates! If it's at our home ground, Spurs are doomed!"
The Gunners' fanbase was in a frenzy.
With over a hundred years of bitter rivalry, whenever Arsenal meets their North London nemesis Tottenham Hotspur…
The Arsenal faithful are always fired up!
They'd love nothing more than to shove a cannon barrel down a Spurs fan's throat!
On the other side of North London…
At the Tottenham club.
Pochettino was summoned by the higher-ups.
He was even issued a final warning!
The 6–0 slaughter at the hands of Arsenal in the Premier League opener…
The impact of that match was massive.
Not only was it the season opener, but also a highly anticipated North London Derby.
As a result, in just his first season at the helm, Pochettino was already facing a crisis.
Tottenham's top brass made it clear:
This League Cup quarterfinal against Arsenal—
Would be the make-or-break match to decide whether Pochettino survives the winter transfer window… or gets thrown out of White Hart Lane!
Pochettino wasn't willing to be kicked out just halfway into the season.
In the upcoming League Cup quarterfinal…
He would lead Tottenham with everything he had, to try and stop Arsenal's rampage!
