You can make it go under the slur with extra-offset:

\version "2.11.65"

\relative c'' {
  \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'( 0.0 . -4.0)
%   \override TextScript #'avoid-slur = #'inside
   c2*1/2( s4^\markup {\natural} d4.) c8
}

Is the natural sign supposed to apply to the D?  If so then I'd just use 
d!4. instead.
