It comes down to if you think Rimuru is stronger than the things he absorbs. Logically yes, because all their points, strength, and skills get added to him. So if he "eats" a True Dragon, he becomes a True Dragon+Everything Else he ate. In sort, he's a True Dragon+ being, meaning he is stronger. However, since Valdanava is considered a True Dragon, the gap between abilities might mean that while an Ultimate Slime is stronger than "some" of the True Dragons, it isn't stronger than all of them. Which is fair, because that's true for most beings in the story too, the ranks are just titles, technically a being can be far stronger than his title implies. Similar to how Leon was OP even for a True Hero, the guy was practically SS-Class even before he became a Demi-God.
