No extension. It should work by default. Two page view is in the menu at the top right.

Hit Ctrl+O in Chrome and pick the file.

Sometimes server MIME types (or the download attribute on anchor links) force a download instead of letting Chrome just load the PDF directly. But it can definitely open local PDFs, I chucked Acrobat in the trash years ago when I found out.
