It doesn't matter the bootloader is on local HDD or in Ventoy USB.
You can install Linux into Ventoy USB's partition 3 for example.
And boot this linux by Ventoy.
F4 dosent work the way expected becouse in a machine whit a internal disk its going to try booting the interna "local"l hard disk instead the USB one whit the 3 partition so  no luke : (

You can write your custom grub menu and load by F6.
In the custom grub menu you can boot your linux distro as you want.

Or if you use UEFI mode you can download a rEFInd.iso and put it to Ventoy USB and boot the ISO. After that you can use rEFInd to find your linux distro and boot.

SuperGrub2 is another similar super bootloader.
