Naturally Generated Air Blocks not Filled with /fill replace

When trying to fill air blocks generated in the world in order to generate caves, ravines, lakes, etc. are not counted when using /fill <x> <y> <z> <x> <y> <z> <block> replace minecraft:air. Once a block has been placed in that position and then broken, it will be properly filled. Otherwise, the command will return the error message "No blocks were filled."

you need to use both /fill <x> <y> <z> <x> <y> <z> <block> replace minecraft:air, /fill <x> <y> <z> <x> <y> <z> <block> replace minecraft:cave_air     at a time or use /fill <x> <y> <z> <x> <y> <z> <block> keep
