in the picture,

  • in the circuit 1, we can see the conventional current direction
  • in the cirucit 2, we can see the real electrons direction

enter image description here it is right i think. but then i have a big problem, during their travel the eletrons pass through the generator, so, they go from + to - .... and it is not possible, an eletron go from - to +. i mean the eletric field is from + to -, so the eletrons must go against the eletric field, so with the opposite direction that the direction i drawn in the 2nd picture.

I believe the solution here is that electrons do not pass through the battery (or generator, as you call it). If we imagine a single electron moving through the circuit, it does not make a complete loop, and it certainly doesn't travel around the circuit multiple times.

One can imagine that the reaction in a chemical battery produces electrons, which then travel around the circuit. Once they reach the positive side of the circuit, their journey is over.
