The default location for the Parenthesis_engraver is the Score context, 
that is why removing it from the NullVoice has no effect.

The simplest option I see is this:

%%%%
\version "2.18.2"

music = \relative {
  c' e \parenthesize g c
}

\score {
  \new Staff <<
    \new Voice { \music }
    \new NullVoice \with { \omit ParenthesesItem } { \music }
  >>
}
%%%%
