Hi Emmanuel, 

I can’t tell whether it’s will work from the blast lines that you sent. It will depend on the full headers in the fasta lines, which you’ll run after all the blasts are complete. 

Assembly isn’t really my expertise or the topic of this mailing list, but assembling your contigs into scaffolds would probably help your annotations by connecting some parts of genes that are broken across contigs, and will definitely help downstream analysis if you need to know which genes are located next to each other. 

How much improvement you can get by scaffolding depends on the type of sequence data you have. Each scaffolder makes assumptions and has requirements, and some assemblers like velvet and SOAPdenovo have scaffolding built into their algorithms. I’d recommend starting with a  review like this one: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1672022912000095 <http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1672022912000095>
