By "created in all 10 brokers" you mean 10 partitions? Or 10 replicas for each partition?
You can create a topic with either option, or both. By specifing partition number and number of replicas when creating the topic or by setting a default for all future topics. In my opinion, 10 replicas is a bit excessive, but definitely possible. When you send a message to a broker, you need to write it to the leader replica of the partition you are writing to. The Java producer handles that for you, even if you don't specify all brokers in the list. Hope this clarifies things.
