I'm not sure why/what happens, but try

\new Staff \with {
  \consists Script_engraver
}
\new Voice \with {
  \remove Script_engraver
} {
 \override  Slur #'outside-staff-priority = #1
 c''4-_( c''-_ c''-_ c''-_) c''4->( c''-> c''-. c''-.)
 c''4-_( c''-_ c''-_ c''-_) c''4->( c''-> c''-. c''-.)
}

(and then if you remove the override it becomes weird...)
