All receptacles serving kitchen counters need GFI protection. How you achieve this is up to you.
This can be one GFI at the beginning of the circuit, a GFI breaker, or even all GFI devices if that's your wish.

Simplest way is to use a GFCI outlet as the first with power on the "line" terminals. Then, connect the rest of the outlets from the " load " side.
