A traveling nen master could be Naruto's mentor. This master could be on a journey to spread the knowledge of nen. He crosses paths with Naruto and decides to teach him. The master might have a strict teaching style, pushing Naruto to his limits, but also guiding him carefully through the complex world of nen.
There's a possibility that it's a spirit or a deity in the world of bending. This entity is impressed by Naruto's tenacity and chooses to guide him on his journey of learning bending.
However, Naruto also has a lot to offer. So, in a way, they could be mutual mentors. Naruto's unwavering determination and his experience in facing powerful foes could inspire Shikamaru to be more bold in his actions. So, it's not necessarily a one - way mentorship.
It could be Kakashi. Since he's already Naruto's teacher and he knows both techniques. He could guide Naruto in understanding the intricacies of the Chidori, like how to form the lightning - chakra in his hand, and for the Rasengan, he could give more advanced tips on chakra control.
Even though Orochimaru is a bit of a controversial figure, in a fanfic, he could be Naruto's mentor in a different way. Maybe Naruto tries to learn from Orochimaru's vast knowledge of jutsus, but at the same time, he tries to correct Orochimaru's wrongdoings. This would be an interesting dynamic as Naruto tries to take the good parts of Orochimaru's Sannin - like qualities while avoiding the evil.
The male protagonist's master was called Yan Yuqing. Although it was not explicitly mentioned that the master's name was Long Xun, the master-disciple relationship in this novel was very loving, and the female protagonist was very cute and interesting. I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
I recommend "Hiding in the Great Empress Palace, I'm Invincible!" The main character, Ye Chen, had the check-in system and was chosen as the Empress of the Great Empress Luo Hongyan. He used the Xuanyuan Sword in the palace to break through to the next plane and finally returned the Xuanyuan Sword. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
A mentor text for realistic fiction could be a well - known novel like 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. It shows real - life situations, such as racial injustice in a small town. By studying it, writers can learn how to create believable characters, like Scout, who grows and changes in a realistic way. It also teaches about setting, as the small - town Alabama setting is vividly described and impacts the story.
