How to create a flash drive that will format the drive without logging in?

Good afternoon everyone!
There is a problem of fast formatting of set of computer disks. They suggested that supposedly you can create a flash drive that helps with this. Namely, you insert a USB flash drive into the port. reboot and the disk is formatted. And such a procedure does not imply entering the BIOS and does not even need a screen.
Can you please tell me how this can be done? Where to look, where to dig?
PS is ready to financially thank for the image of such a flash drive)

Any bootable flash drive with live OS can be used by putting a script into autoload that deletes partitions on disks. The main thing is not to delete partitions on the flash drive itself :-).
Under Windows, partitions can be deleted using diskpart, it supports its own scripts.
But the settings of computers can be different, for example, if booting from USB media is prohibited in the BIOS or this boot is lower in priority than another boot option, then simply by inserting a flash drive you will not boot from it - additional manipulations will be required.
