I have Google Chrome Version 64.0.3282.186 (Official Build) (64-bit) installed on Kubuntu 16.04.
I don't see any option to access the browser's adblocker which is supposed to be available since version 64:
chrome://settings/content?search=ads
highlights only downloads in Privacy and security > Content Settings.
But, according to https://www.howtogeek.com/342986/how-to-disable-chromes-new-ad-blocker-on-certain-sites-or-all-sites/:
Scroll down a bit more, to the Privacy and Security section. Find the Content Settings option and click it.
There are a lot of options here, but you’re looking for the one titled “Ads.†Give it a click.
I don't see one titled Ads unlike what is shown on the How-to Geek page.
I'm signed in to my Google account and the profile doesn't have any external adblocker installed.

It is available in the latest build of chromium
https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/download-chromium
The download is a binary in a zip file.
Download , unzip, and run the binary from the command line
Direct download:
https://download-chromium.appspot.com/
unzip chrome-linux.zip
cd chrome-linux/
./chrome
Screenshot 1 (content menu)
Screenshot 2 (ads menu)
Chromium is the same as chrome without the branding. Has all the same features including sync across platforms, sync with chrome, development tools, etc.
I suspect you have to wait for google to release a new linux version of chrome or the ubuntu developers to package chromium.
In the mean time you can use chromium from the link I gave you without damaging your system or chrome.

Thanks! I just found out that is available in my existing version of Google Chrome but I need to allow a lot of features that I prefer to keep off rather than on.

OK, well, IMO it is not a replacement for an adblock extension, it just blocks the most annoying stuff, and everyone is changing ....
