Make Chrome New Tab Totally Blank [duplicate]

I want to open a tab and nothing but a tab. So far, I have used New Tab Redirect! and specified a blank redirect URL, which becomes about:blank. But when I press CMD/CTRL + T it gives focus to the location bar but puts the cursor after about:blank. Is there a way to either clear about:blank entirely or select all the text, so I can start typing straight away and not have to CMD/CTRL + A and backspace/delete?

EDIT:

I tried :

html {
    display: none !important;
}

With the stylish plugin for URL chrome://newtab but it didn't work.

When you press CTRL+A or CTRL+L it will select the whole location bar.

The backspace key is not required, when text is selected and you start to type the text will disappear.

There's the "Blank New Tab" extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pfdloiaebhgmjpaclbbodcmlmppkakjh

Should do what you're looking for.

If you are happy getting your hands dirty with a bit of CSS, then I'd suggest using Stylish to alter the default tab page - it leaves the location bar blank.
