Chapter 228 -  228: Two Goals in 12 Minutes 

Under the night sky of North London!

The Emirates Stadium erupted with a deafening roar!

Just ten seconds after kickoff!

Arsenal's front line surged forward like a silver torrent.

At the top of the penalty arc, Kai unleashed a cannon strike!

In an instant!

The stands erupted into frenzied madness!

Sixty thousand fans leapt from their seats instinctively.

And in the despairing eyes of the away Tottenham fans,

Kai's ruthless thunderbolt tore through the air above the penalty box!

In Hugo Lloris's stunned gaze,

the ball roared into the top left corner of the goal!

The net bulged violently!!

In that moment—

The Emirates exploded!

A tidal wave of sound crashed down from the stands!

Arsenal fans widened their eyes in sheer ecstasy!

A mountain-crumbling, sea-roaring cheer shook the stadium!

"GOALLLL!!!"

"It's in! What a beauty!!"

"It's Kai again!"

"A trademark cannon shot! Arsenal take the lead!"

"Tottenham, tremble! Prepare to be crushed four times over! You are facing the unbeatable Arsenal!"

"And we—are about to lift the heavy Premier League trophy, standing over our North London rivals!"

The commentary booth shook violently!

The commentator gripped his microphone, his whole body trembling!

With that strike from Kai,

the Emirates was plunged into indescribable frenzy!

Though less than a minute had passed,

Kai's thunderbolt that shattered Spurs' defense

had Arsenal supporters going wild!

They could already see the moment, ninety minutes later,

when their team would lift the trophy!

On the stands, Spurs fans stared blankly, bodies trembling.

Tonight, Arsenal were at full strength.

And Kai was firing at full power!

Arsenal's desire to crush Tottenham and seal the title early

was blazing for all to see!

On the pitch!

After scoring, Kai roared toward the stands with his fist pumping!

He slid on his knees in celebration!

Then slapped the Arsenal badge on his chest.

In that instant,

the fans understood exactly what their Gunner King meant.

The Arsenal supporters erupted into thunderous chants!

"Champions belong to Arsenal!"

"Champions!!"

"We're going to win the league!"

"Gunner King!"

"Gunner King!!"

The Arsenal players rushed over,

lifting Kai high in their embrace.

Everyone was bursting with joy.

Among them, the longest-serving Gunner was Van Persie.

But since joining Arsenal back in the 2004–05 season,

he had never won a single Premier League title in eight long years!

Every player's hunger for the trophy

was beyond words.

And now—

they were so, so close to their long-awaited dream!

On the sidelines, Wenger clenched his fist hard.

The Professor's face was lit with indescribable excitement!

Arsenal's bench was in total celebration!

Kai spread his arms, embracing his teammates.

"Win this match, and we are Premier League champions!"

"Crush our North London rivals underfoot, win the title with seven rounds to spare! What could be more thrilling than that?"

"Stay sharp! In ninety minutes, glory will belong to Arsenal!"

Kai's shout rang out!

And instantly—his teammates responded in unison!

Arsenal's players waved their arms passionately,

answering their captain's call!

After the wild celebrations,

Kai led his teammates back to their half.

Tottenham's players, however,

were still trapped in the shadow of conceding so early.

This was already the fourth time this season

that Spurs had faced Kai's Arsenal.

Four North London derbies in a row—

and every one had left Spurs unable to lift their heads!

"Beep!"

The referee blew his whistle again.

Less than a minute into the match,

Tottenham restarted from the center circle!

The young Harry Kane already looked lost.

As the ball was kicked off,

both sides resumed their runs across the pitch.

But compared to the title-chasing Arsenal players,

Tottenham's footsteps seemed unbearably heavy.

In the away stands, Spurs diehards wore faces of steel-gray gloom.

At this rate…

Tottenham really were going to become nothing more than the backdrop.

The backdrop to Arsenal's title celebration!

No Spurs supporter could ever accept such humiliation.

Their diehard fans stared anxiously, whispering desperate prayers.

But just ten minutes later—

Tottenham's nightmare struck again!

Arsenal moved another step closer to the championship!

12th minute!

Kai led Arsenal in another sweeping attack!

Spurs hoofed the ball desperately out from their back line.

It sailed into Arsenal's half.

Koscielny and Van Dijk combined with successive headers,

brought it down, then launched a decisive forward pass into midfield.

Rosický spun away on the spot, sliding in with a sweeping pass.

The ball rolled perfectly to Kai's feet.

And the moment Kai received it!

He half-turned to shield, guided the ball,

then with a graceful drag-back, left Aaron Lennon for dead!

Immediately he surged diagonally forward.

Gareth Bale came rushing in to counter-press—

but Kai beat him using Bale's own signature move,

torching the Welsh winger with sheer pace!

The entire Emirates erupted into wild cheers!

In the away stands, Spurs fans were crushed with despair.

And so was Bale on the pitch.

Time after time, match after match,

Kai had devoured him with speed.

The psychological blow was devastating!

As Kai burst clear of Bale,

Arsenal's whole front line surged forward ferociously!

In the feverish gaze of the crowd,

Kai showcased once again the genius of a true midfield master.

Though there was acres of space ahead to carry the ball closer,

he didn't stick to a formulaic dribble.

Instead, the moment he spotted the chance—

he unleashed a thunderous, low-driven through ball!

Like a surgeon's scalpel,

it sliced Tottenham's defense wide open!

Kyle Walker twisted his head back in panic,

but the ball had already whistled past him,

threading perfectly into the space behind!

Another surgical through pass!

The Emirates went absolutely wild!

And Van Persie, sprinting on the perfect line,

met it in stride.

One touch with his right to control,

shifted it to his left—

then stormed into the box!

Left foot, near-post rocket!

Tottenham's net bulged again!

GOALLLL!!

2–0!!

The Emirates was a cauldron of thunderous roars!

"Another surgical pass from Kai! Spurs' defense is shattered in an instant!"

"Van Persie smashes it home!"

"It's in again!!"

"Barely over ten minutes played, and it's already 2–0!"

"Kai's Arsenal have gone absolutely berserk!!"

"The hunger for glory, the hatred of their rivals—tonight the Gunners are unleashing a merciless slaughter!"

Under the night sky,

the Emirates shook with earth-splitting cheers!

After scoring, Van Persie rushed straight to Kai.

"We're going to win the Premier League!!"

Every Arsenal player piled in,

hugging together in a wild celebration!

2–0!

They were edging closer and closer to the title!

The fans were ecstatic.

Their first trophy of the season had come just a month earlier—

the League Cup.

And now, barely a month later,

they were on the brink of another championship!

Two trophies in the space of a month—

a season's double crown!

It was the kind of dream that could make every Arsenal fan

wake up laughing in their sleep!

On the pitch, hearts pounding with excitement,

the Gunners jogged back to their half.

The game went on!

Just ten minutes in and two goals down,

Villas-Boas refused to sit still.

He tried to change Tottenham's approach.

But Spurs were already completely rattled.

Against Kai's Arsenal, brimming with fire and fury tonight,

they looked like headless chickens.

Their defending had no clear purpose,

their attacks lacked direction.

Barely into the game, and Spurs were already in shambles!

Meanwhile, Arsenal's waves of attack kept coming,

with no sign of slowing down!

Their ravenous hunger for the title

had whipped the young Gunners into an unstoppable storm!

Kai was everywhere—

running, pressing, creating—

total football, all-out assault!
