Under the night sky of Merseyside—
Anfield Stadium exploded into a tidal wave of thunderous noise!!
All 60,000 fans stood up without exception,
their gazes—excited or terrified—fixed on the confident, black-haired figure near Liverpool's goal!
At the Anfield commentary box,
chaos erupted.
"My God! Has Maradona returned?!"
"This is a classic Maradona-style goal!"
"No—no, he's not Maradona!"
"He's not anyone else—he is Kai!"
"Arsenal's captain!"
"The Gunner King from London!!"
The commentator could no longer contain his shock.
He threw aside the microphone,
his body visibly trembling!
Under the night sky,
roars and screams burst from the Arsenal stands!
All eyes focused on one man on the pitch—Kai!
Eyes burned with intensity.
This was nothing short of a miracle.
An earth-shattering performance.
A goal that would undoubtedly be a Puskás Award contender!
From the fans' point of view:
Kai won the ball back from Liverpool's half,
then began his dazzling solo run.
He dribbled past every red shirt in his path—
Andy Carroll, Spearing, Gerrard, Skrtel, Carragher...
And finally—
In front of Liverpool's goal,
He unleashed a jaw-dropping pendulum feint,
shaking goalkeeper Brad Jones to his core—
Before calmly finishing the move.
4–0!
In this Premier League marquee clash,
Kai had completed a solo dragon-slaying run,
scoring Arsenal's fourth goal of the night!
The stands at Anfield descended into madness!
Arsenal players on the field sprinted to embrace their captain,
surrounding him in celebration.
Kai raised his fists and roared toward the stands!
The away fans waved their arms wildly,
screaming his name at the top of their lungs!
On the sideline, even Arsène Wenger couldn't hide his emotion.
He turned to face the crowd,
waving excitedly, awe written across his face.
Pointing toward Kai on the pitch, he shouted to the fans:
"Who is he?!"
The Arsenal supporters answered passionately:
"He's the Gunner King of Arsenal!"
"The King of the Emirates!"
"The leader of the Gunners!"
Wenger raised both arms and bellowed:
"No—he is a God!
A divine force leading the Gunners forward,
rising from despair!"
In that instant—
The entire Arsenal section erupted in ecstasy!
Fans screamed at the top of their lungs:
"God! He's our God!!"
At that moment—
Even the staunchest atheists would've wavered.
Because they truly witnessed a godlike figure,
leading this young Arsenal side into an unstoppable charge!
Not far away, at the Liverpool dugout—
Dalglish stood frozen.
His hands were visibly shaking.
In that moment—
Despite all his years weathering football's highs and lows,
this legendary figure of the Reds could no longer remain calm.
In his era, Dalglish had witnessed the rise of Beckenbauer, Maradona, Cruyff…
He had seen the birth and peak of countless legendary superstars on the football stage.
But times had changed.
And it wasn't until this very moment,
until he truly saw Kai—
until he witnessed this Arsenal super talent's mad performance at Anfield—
That this Liverpool legend trembled.
This was a terrifying monster the likes of which he had never seen before.
He seemed capable of anything.
So young, so explosive—
So perfect and utterly unstoppable.
On the pitch:
The Liverpool players stood in stunned silence.
Gerrard, with the captain's armband wrapped around his arm, stood near the center circle, hands on hips.
His eyes trembled as he stared at the young figure surrounded by cheers from teammates and fans alike.
The 4–0 scoreline weighed heavily on the Red captain's shoulders.
Here, in the legendary Anfield Stadium—
They were being humiliated on home turf in this round of the Premier League.
Gerrard was unwilling to accept this fate.
He had worn the Liverpool captain's armband for many years now.
Everything at Anfield was tied to him.
Suddenly, Suárez walked up beside him.
"Captain… What if we try to convince him to join Liverpool next season?"
The Reds' summer signing had just spoken a wildly bold idea.
Gerrard's brows furrowed immediately:
"What kind of nonsense are you spouting?!"
He could hardly believe what he was hearing.
It wasn't that Gerrard didn't want Kai as a teammate.
Quite the opposite.
He desperately wanted to know what kind of explosive chemistry would erupt if this unprecedented super genius were on the same team as him.
But—
Tonight, Liverpool was being absolutely thrashed by Arsenal, right here at Anfield, and it was Kai leading the charge.
Gerrard's pride couldn't accept the idea of "If you can't beat them, buy them."
It was a blow to team spirit.
And yet, not long after—
Gerrard's eyes lit up.
He had suddenly thought of another possibility.
Even if there was almost no chance of bringing Kai to Liverpool…
There might be another way for him and Kai to fight as teammates.
Gerrard's body shook.
The Liverpool captain began brainstorming like crazy.
He didn't know if this idea was possible—
But his instincts screamed at him:
He had to seize this opportunity!
He had to find a way to express this idea to the superstar wearing the Arsenal shirt!
Under the night sky of Anfield…
The roars from the stands kept rising, wave after wave.
The silent despair of Liverpool fans,
and the ecstatic cheers of Arsenal fans,
twisted and clashed in the air—
a powerful and complicated storm of joy and sorrow above the pitch.
