I tried to create a block without any "parent" (BasicBlock::Create(getGlobalContext(), "init"), fill it, but how to link it with the created function?

You can use Function::getBasicBlockList().  That list supports fully general list operations like "insert", so you can just plop it in wherever you'd like it.
