You didn't read the documents I've provided the link for.

This controller doesn't have JTAG but a proprietary ISP port, and IDA Pro
won't know the V850 opcodes. This means you MUST have the NEC tools.

ISP means In-System programming, so the controller can remain on the board
provided that the external connections to the ISP pins and to Vpp allow
this.

See document #3 from my link, chapter 17.
